Pan Card not updated

rajan (Querist) 13 February 2010 This query is : Resolved
An employee's pan no is wrongly updated in salary master of the company and tax is deducted and remitted to income tax department.If The employee notices the error only in the form 16 at year end , How it can be rectified while filing IT return?

How can the employee prove the ITO that the tax deducted is genuine and there is a mistake in the pan no in the registar?

From the income tax department is it possible to trace the mistake since the wrongly updated pan will not be a real one? for ex: for ALRTP1234Q it might be wrongly entered as ALTPR1234Q.

Please advise

The employer has to rectify the mistake by filing a revised 24Q for all the relevant quarters and only then there is a possibility of getting credit of the TDS.
