It is almost an year that we have got our TAN Number , but till date every time we pay income tax in form 281, the bank staff ( State bank of India) tell us that our TAN No is not reflecting in their database, initially I thought that the TAN database available with bankers will be refreshing every month or so, but now inspite of being more than a year the TAN database has not refreshed and our TAN Number is not displayed i.e when enetered our TAN Number the name of TAN Holder is not displayed but we have TAN login and from past one year we are deducting and paying tax and also all our quarterly statements are being accepted by TIN NSDL.

 

Now where do i approach so that the TAN number of our Co is reflected in the database which the bank looksup / uses during collecting tax/

 

Kindly advise and help
