TDS on the basis of 26AS

This is regarding my scrutiny case under CASS  for the AY 2009-10.

By mistake, dividend of7,000/- was offered for tax in my Return. During hearing I requested the Assessing Officer not to take the Dividend ( from UTI) into consideration. The Assessing Officer argued that he will start from the figure of Gross Total Income as I offered in the Return plus the addtions ( interest income) which he  detected from Bank Statements. Is he correct?

Despite my best efforts I could not collect TDS Certificate in Form 16A , but the deductor has uploaded the deduction  properly in Form 26AS.  Can I get benefit on the basis of 26AS ? The Assessing Officer is insisting upon production of Original TDS Certificate in Form 16A.. Is he justified? What would be my remedy?

Kindly enlighten me.
