Discrepancy between Form 16 & Form 26AS
Hello, There is a discrepancy between my income as per Form 16 & Form 26AS. Section 2 & 4 of the Form 16 have not been considered in Form 26AS as a result of which Form 26AS income is Rs 20000 more than the actual taxable income. I have received an email from IT asking me to respond to this inconsistency. There is no need to file a revised return as the tax deducted as per Form 16 is correct. Could you let me know - 1. How to get Form 26AS corrected? 2. How to respond to the email I received from IT? Regards, Sachin

Hello Abhishek, Thank you. Could you let me know how to submit the response? I looked into the IT portal & I could only see option to Agree, Partially Agree or Disagree. Will this be a text response? Or do I have to select specific options? Kindly help. Regards, Sachin

The only way to rectify form 26AS is to get your employer to revise his TDS return. However, as I understand employers don’t tend to do that often.
You could explain the difference to the income tax department by first disagreeing with the demand on the portal and then explaining the difference.
Should you have any more questions, do let me know!
Please share Form 16 and 26AS on my email I'd .com to analyze it. Might be it is due to exemption and deduction benefit not given in 26AS because in case of salaried class ITR we consider Form 16 as the basis of filling ITR in compliance with 26AS.
Please share it.
It happened in many cases where Form26AS income is more than Form 16 because many employers consider Gross salary and not taxable salary at the time of filing TDS return due to which difference arises.You should disagree with the demand and attach Form 16.
Still before replying, please share Form16,form 26AS and ITR filed on my I'd .com.
Hi,
Please disagree to the notice in the IT portal and explain the reason for the difference. You should also attach Form 16 as part of the response.
Regards,
Nikhil
