Attention Taxpayers! Don't Fret if You Haven't Received Form 16A from Your Employer
Business Desk, New Delhi. The date for filing Income Tax Return (ITR) is approaching. In such a situation, Form-16 is necessary for a salaried person. Form-16 A is a kind of TDS certificate, which shows the TDS amount deposited by the Income Tax Department. Whenever excess tax is deducted by the Income Tax Department, the taxpayer submits TDS Certificate for tax deduction.
If you haven't received your Form 16A by the time you're ready to file your income tax return, don't panic. Here's what you can do:
Contact Your Employer: The first step is to reach out to your employer's payroll or accounts department. Politely inquire about the status of your Form 16A and request a copy. Most employers understand the importance of this document and will expedite the process.
Form 16 Part A: If obtaining the complete Form 16A proves difficult, you can request Form 16 Part A. This portion contains the details of TDS deducted from your salary, which is sufficient for basic tax return filing.
Form 24Q: In case your employer hasn't deducted TDS or has deducted incorrectly, you can use Form 24Q to report the correct TDS details.
Estimated Income and Tax: If you're unable to obtain any of the above documents, you can estimate your income and tax liability based on your salary slips and Form 12BA (if applicable). While this isn't ideal, it allows you to avoid penalties for delayed filing.
Revised Return: Once you receive the correct Form 16A, you can file a revised return to rectify any discrepancies in your initial return.
