Re: Tax deduction at source – Mismatch – Form 26AS.
It is understood that any taxes paid under ITA whether by way of advance tax or TDS or regular assessment tax etc. are reflected in Form 26AS of the taxpayer for the given year. The said form is considered by the tax authority as proof of payment. Therefore, if such form is not updated on real time basis reflecting all the payments for any reason, it will create hurdle or delay in reconciling computation of disputed tax with payment already made by the taxpayer. What is the procedure to resolve such issues?
It may be pointed out to CBDT/ Department that necessary measures may be taken to strengthen the system so that Form 26AS is updated on real time basis.
