(b) debit card. {Notification No.41/2010 dated 31st May 2010}

4.5 Interest, Penalty & Prosecution for Failure to Deposit Tax Deducted:

4.5.1 If a person fails to deduct the whole or any part of the tax at source, or, after deducting, fails to pay the whole or any part of the tax to the credit of the Central Government within the prescribed time, he shall be liable to action in accordance with the provisions of section 201 and shall be deemed to be an assessee-in-default in respect of such tax and liable for penal action u/s 221 of the Act. Further Section 201(1A) provides that such person shall be liable to pay simple interest

4.6 Furnishing of Certificate for Tax Deducted (Section 203):

4.6.1 Section 203 requires the DDO to furnish to the employee a certificate in Form 16 detailing the amount of TDS and certain other particulars. Rule 31 prescribes that Form 16 should be furnished to the employee by 31st May after the end of the financial year in which the income was paid and tax deducted. Even the banks deducting tax at the time of payment of pension are required to issue such certificates. Revised Form 16 annexed to Notification No 11 dated 19-02-2013 is enclosed. The certificate in Form 16 shall specify
(a) Valid permanent account number (PAN) of the deductee;
(b) Valid tax deduction and collection account number (TAN) of the deductor;
(c) (i) Book identification number or numbers (BIN) where deposit of tax deducted is without production of challan in case of an office of the Government;
(ii) Challan identification number or numbers (CIN*) in case of payment through bank.
(*Challan identification number (CIN) means the number comprising the Basic Statistical Returns (BSR) Code of the Bank branch where the tax has been deposited, the date on which the tax has been deposited and challan serial number given by the bank.)
(d) Receipt numbers of all the relevant quarterly statements of TDS (24Q). The receipt number of the quarterly statement is of 8 digit.

Further as per Circular 04/2013 dated 17-04-2013 all deductors (including Government deductors who deposit TDS in the Central Government Account through book entry) shall issue the Part A of Form No. 16, by generating and subsequently downloading it through TRACES Portal and after duly authenticating and verifying it, in respect of all sums deducted on or after the 1st day of April, 2012 under the provisions of section 192 of Chapter XVII-B. Part A of Form No 16 shall have a unique TDS certificate number. ‘Part B (Annexure)’ of Form No. 16 shall be prepared by the deductor manually and issued to the deductee after due authentication and verification alongwith the Part A of the Form No. 16.
If the DDO fails to issue these certificates to the person concerned, as required by section 203, he will be liable to pay, by way of penalty, under section 272A(2)(g), a sum which shall be Rs.100/- for every day during which the failure continues.

It is, however, clarified that there is no obligation to issue the TDS certificate in case tax at source is not deductible/deducted by virtue of claims of exemptions and deductions.

[Note: TRACES is a web-based application of the Income – tax Department that provides an interface to all stakeholders associated with TDS administration. It enables viewing of challan status, downloading of NSDL Conso File, Justification Report and Form 16 / 16A as well as viewing of annual tax credit statements (Form 26AS). Each deductor is required to Register in the Traces portal. Form 16/16A issued to deductees should mandatorily be generated and downloaded from the TRACES portal].

Certain essential points regarding the filing of the Statement and obtaining TDS certificates are mentioned below:
(a) TDS certificate (Form16) would be generated for the deductee only if Valid PAN is correctly mentioned in the Annexure II of Form 24Q in Quarter 4 filed by the deductor. Moreover, employers are advised to ensure in Form 16 that the status of ―matching‖ with respect to ―Form 24G/OLTAS is
‘F‘. If the status of matching other than ‘F‘, kindly take necessary action promptly to rectify the same. It is pertinent to mention here that certain facilities have been provided to the deductors at website www.tdscpc.gov.in/ including online correction of statements (Form 24Q).
(b) The employer should quote the gross amount of salary (including any amount exempt under section 10 and the deductions under chapter VI A) in column 321 (Amount paid/credited) of Annexure I of Form 24Q as per NSDL RPU (hereafter Return Preparation Utility).
(c) The employer should quote the amount of salary excluding any amount exempt under section 10 in column 337 (Total amount of salary) of Annexure II of Form 24Q as per NSDL RPU.
(d) TDS on Income (including loss from House Property) under any Head other than the head ‗Salaries‘ offered for TDS (shown in column 341) can be shown in column 353 (Reported amount of TDS by previous employer, as per NSDL RPU.
(e) Employer is advised to quote Total Taxable Income (Column 346) in Annexure II without rounding-off and TDS should be deducted and reported accordingly i.e. without rounding-off of TDS also.
Example:
Total Taxable Income Total Taxable Income (Rounded Off) TDS to be Deducted (Incl. cess) TDS Deducted/ Reported after rounding-off of income (Incl. cess) Short Deduction
1350094 1350090 236929.05 236927.80 Rs. 1.25
4.6.2. If an assessee is employed by more than one employer during the year, each of the employers shall issue Part A of the certificate in Form No. 16 pertaining to the period for which such assessee was employed with each of the employers and Part B may be issued by each of the employers or the last employer at the option of the assessee.
4.6.3. Authentication by Digital Signatures:
(i) Where a certificate is to be furnished in Form No. 16, the deductor may, at his option, use digital signatures to authenticate such certificates.
(ii) In case of certificates issued under clause (i), the deductor shall ensure that
(a) the conditions prescribed in para 4.6.1 above are complied with;
(b) once the certificate is digitally signed, the contents of the certificates are not amenable to change; and
(c) the certificates have a control number and a log of such certificates is maintained by the deductor.
v The digital signature is being used to authenticate most of the e-transactions on the internet as transmission of information using digital signature is failsafe. It saves time specially in organisations having large number of employees where issuance of certificate of deduction of tax with manual signature is time consuming (Circular no 2 of 2007 dated 21.05.2007)

4.6.4. Furnishing of particulars pertaining to perquisites, etc (Section 192(2C):
4.6.4.1 As per section 192(2C), the responsibility of providing correct and complete particulars of perquisites or profits in lieu of salary given to an employee is placed on the person responsible for paying such income i.e., the person responsible for deducting tax at source. The form and manner of such particulars are prescribed in Rule 26A, Form 12BA (Annexure II) and Form 16 of the Rules. Information relating to the nature and value of perquisites is to be provided by the employer in Form 12BA in case salary paid or payable is above Rs.1,50,000/-. In other cases, the information would have to be provided by the employer in Form 16 (PART B) itself.
4.6.4.2 An employer, who has paid the tax on perquisites on behalf of the employee as per the provisions discussed in para 3.2 of this circular, shall furnish to the employee concerned, a certificate to the effect that tax has been paid to the Central Government and specify the amount so paid, the rate at which tax has been paid and certain other particulars in the amended Form 16.
4.6.4.3 The obligation cast on the employer under Section 192(2C) for furnishing a statement showing the value of perquisites provided to the employee is a crucial responsibility of the employer, which is expected to be discharged in accordance with law and rules of valuation framed there under. Any false information, fabricated documentation or suppression of requisite information will entail consequences thereof provided under the law. The certificates in Forms 16 and/or Form 12BA specified above, shall be furnished to the employee by 31st May of the financial year immediately following the financial year in which the income was paid and tax deducted. If he fails to issue these certificates to the person concerned, as required by section 192(2C), he will be liable to pay, by way of penalty, under section 272A(2)(i), a sum which shall be Rs.100/- for every day during which the failure continues.
As per Section 139C of the Act, the Assessing Officer can require the taxpayer to produce Form 12BA alongwith Form 16, as issued by the employer.

4.7 Mandatory Quoting of PAN and TAN:

4.7.1 Section 203A of the Act makes it obligatory for all persons responsible for deducting tax at source to obtain and quote the Tax deduction and collection Account No (TAN) in the challans, TDS-certificates, statements and other documents. Detailed instructions in this regard are available in this Department’s Circular No.497 [F.No.275/118/ 87-IT(B) dated 9.10.1987]. If a person fails to comply with the provisions of section 203A, he will be liable to pay, by way of penalty, under section 272BB, a sum of ten thousand rupees. Similarly, as per Section
139A(5B), it is obligatory for persons deducting tax at source to quote PAN of the persons from whose income tax has been deducted in the statement furnished u/s 192(2C), certificates furnished u/s 203 and all statements prepared and delivered as per the provisions of section 200(3) of the Act.
4.7.2 All tax deductors are required to file the TDS statements in Form No.24Q (for tax deducted from salaries). As the requirement of filing TDS certificates alongwith the return of income has been done away with, the lack of PAN of deductees is creating difficulties in giving credit for the tax deducted. Tax deductors are, therefore, advised to procure and quote correct PAN details of all deductees in the TDS statements for salaries in Form 24Q. Taxpayers are also liable to furnish their correct PAN to their deductors. Non-furnishing of PAN by the deductee (employee) to the deductor (employer) will result in deduction of TDS at higher rates u/s 206AA of the Act mentioned in para 4.8 below.

4.8 Compulsory Requirement to furnish PAN by employee (Section 206AA):

4.8.1 Section 206AA in the Act makes furnishing of PAN by the employee compulsory in case of receipt of any sum or income or amount, on which tax is deductible. If employee (deductee) fails to furnish his/her PAN to the deductor , the deductor has been made responsible to make TDS at higher of the following rates:
i) at the rate specified in the relevant provision of this Act; or
ii) at the rate or rates in force; or
iii) at the rate of twenty per cent.
The deductor has to determine the tax amount in all the three conditions and apply the higher rate of TDS. However, where the income of the employee computed for TDS u/s 192 is below taxable limit, no tax will be deducted. But where the income of the employee computed for TDS u/s 192 is above taxable limit, the deductor will calculate the average rate of income-tax based on rates in force as provided in sec 192. If the tax so calculated is below 20%, deduction of tax will be made at the rate of 20% and in case the average rate exceeds 20%, tax is to deducted at the average rate. Education cess @ 2% and Secondary and Higher Education Cess @ 1% is not to be deducted, in case the tax is deducted at 20% u/s 206AA of the Act.

4.9 Statement of deduction of tax under section 200(3) [Quarterly Statement of TDS]:

4.9.1 The person deducting the tax (employer in case of salary income), is required to file duly verified Quarterly Statements of TDS in Form 24Q for the periods [details in Table below] of each financial year, to the TIN/facilitation Centres authorized by DGIT (System‘s) which is currently managed by M/s National Securities Depository Ltd (NSDL). Particulars of e-TDS Intermediary at any of the TIN Facilitation Centres are available at http:// www.incometaxindia.gov.in and http://tin-nsdl.com portals. The requirement of filing an annual return of TDS has been done away with w.e.f. 1.4.2006. The quarterly statement for the last quarter filed in Form 24Q (as amended by Notification No. S.O.704(E) dated 12.5.2006) shall be treated as the annual return of TDS. Due dates of filing this statement quarterwise is as in the Table below:

[Notification No. 11 dated 19.02.2013].


4.9.4 Fee for default in furnishing statements (Section 234E):

If a person fails to deliver or caused to be delivered a statement within the time prescribed in section 200(3) in respect of tax deducted at source on or after 1.07.2012 he shall be liable to pay, by way of fee a sum of Rs. 200 for every day during which the failure continues. However, the amount of such fee shall not exceed the amount of tax which was deductible at source. This fee is mandatory in nature and to be paid before furnishing of such statement.

4.9.5 Rectification of mistake in filing TDS Statement:
A DDO can also file a correction statement for rectification of any mistake or to add, delete or update the information furnished in the statement delivered earlier.

4.9.6 Penalty for failure in furnishing statements or furnishing incorrect information (section 271H):

However, the penalty shall not be levied if the person proves that after paying TDS with the fee and interest, if any, to the credit of Central Government, he had delivered such statement before the expiry of one year from the time prescribed for delivering the statement.
4.9.7 At the time of preparing statements of tax deducted, the deductor is required to:

(v) furnish particular of amounts paid or credited on which tax was not deducted in view of the issue of certificate of no deduction of tax u/s 197 by the assessing officer of the payee.
4.9.8 It may be noted that under the new TDS procedure, TAN of the deductor/ PAN of the deductee and receipt number of TDS statement filed by the deductor act as unique identifier for granting online credit of TDS to the deductee. Hence due care should be taken in filling these particulars. Due care should also be taken in indicating correct CIN/ BIN in TDS statements.

4.10 TDS on Income from Pension:

In the case of pensioners who receive their pension (not being Family Pension paid to a spouse) from a nationalized bank, the instructions contained in this circular shall apply in the same manner as they apply to salary-income. The deductions from the amount of pension under section 80C on account of contribution to Life Insurance, Provident Fund, NSC etc., if the pensioner furnishes the relevant details to the banks, may be allowed.

4.11.2 In respect of non-residents, the salary paid for services rendered in India shall be regarded as income earned in India.

(ii) DDO Serial Number: It is a five digit unique number generated for every DDO transaction reported in Form 24G statement.
(iii) Transfer Voucher Date: It is the last date of month for which Form 24G statement is filed.
BIN is required to be disseminated to the respective DDOs who in turn are required to report the same in the TDS/TCS Statement. The quoting of BIN has been made mandatory w.e.f 01stFebruary, 2012. BIN is a unique number to verify the claim of TDS deposited without production of challan. As it is a verification key, it is advised that valid BIN disseminated by AO to the respective DDO should be correctly filled in TDS statement.

23. When is BIN generated?
On processing of accepted Form 24G statement, BIN is generated for each DDO record (with valid TAN) present in Form 24G statement. BIN are generated at TIN Central System and intimated to the PAOs with details of TAN and Form Type.

24. What do the PAO and DDO have to do with the BIN?
PAOs have to disseminate the BINS to respective DDOs. While preparing the quarterly TDS/TCS statement, DDO has to quote the said BIN details, if tax has been paid through transfer voucher (book adjustment).
BINs generated for a particular 24G are mailed to the AO on the e-mail id provided in Form 24G. In addition, AO may also download the BIN details through AO login at TIN site.

25. Under what circumstances will BIN be generated?

· BIN will be generated for valid TAN-DDO records added in Form 24G correction statement.

· BIN will be generated for DDO records where invalid TANs/TAN not present in Income Tax Department database is updated with a valid TAN.
· New BIN will not be generated for any update made in TAN name, demographic and contact details, amount of Tax deducted and remitted or nature of deduction.
· BIN details will not be generated for deleted DDO records.

26. What is the utility of BIN?
The BIN details and amount of TDS reported in the quarterly TDS/TCS Statement filed by the DDO will be matched with the respective details filed in Form No.24G filed by the PAO for verification purpose.

27. Are there instances where BIN details and amount of TDS reported in TDS/TCS statements do not match with that reported in Form 24G? What are the consequences of such mismatch?
(i) Instances of wrong/incorrect reporting of BIN by the DDOs in the TDS/TCS Statement have been observed. Reporting of incorrect BINs and corresponding amount in TDS statement will lead to mismatch with the respective amount as reported in the Form No. 24G. In this situation, the corresponding deductees may not get credit of the TDS/TCS. Therefore, the BIN as disseminated by the respective PAO should be reported correctly along with the corresponding amount in the TDS/TCS Statement filed by the DDOs.
(ii) In a number of cases, one distinct DDO has been found to be reported by more than one AO in the Form No. 24G for the same form type of TDS statement which is not a valid scenario. The DDOs and respective AOs are advised to reconcile the issue and one DDO should be mapped to one AO only for a particular form type for a particular month.
28. What are the duties of PAOs/DTOs/CDDOs?
i. To apply for AIN with jurisdictional TDS office. AIN application can be downloaded from TIN site.
ii. To obtain correct TAN from the reporting DDOs.
iii. To file Form No. 24G (in CD, DVD, Pen Drive), within 10 days from the end of the month, electronically either at TIN-FC or by direct online upload at TIN website.
iv. To track status of the filed Form No. 24G through TIN website.
v. To download Book Identification Number (BIN) generated on the basis of 24G statement.
vi. To disseminate BIN to the respective DDOs.

29. What are the duties of DDOs?
i. To provide correct TAN to their PAOs/DTOs/CDDOs to whom the DDO/Deductor reports the tax so deducted & who is responsible for crediting such sum to the credit of the Central Government.
ii. To report to PAOs/DTOs/CDDOs, the details of tax deducted and credited to the Central Government account through book adjustment.
iii. To quote BIN in the quarterly TDS/TCS Statement (24Q, 26Q, etc) for the tax deducted and credited through book adjustment.

30. What are the consequences of non-quoting of BIN details in quarterly TDS/TCS statement?

(a) BIN details and amount of TDS reported in the quarterly TDS/TCS Statement filed by the DDO will be matched with the details filed in Form No.24G filed by the PAO for verification purpose.

(b) Any wrong information reported by the DDOs in TDS/TCS Statement may lead to mismatch due to which credit to the respective deductee will not be available in the deductee‘s Form 26AS.
