End-to-end TDS Notice Reply for Padi Industrial Estate industrial cluster with ashok leyland anchor establishments — and a zero-penalty filing record
Handling TDS Notice Reply for Padi Industrial Estate and Padi clients — qualified review, a 7-year workpaper archive and fixed fees from day one. Call 9566-068-468.
Section 197 read with Rule 28 allows a payee to apply in Form 13 to the AO for a certificate authorising lower or nil TDS where the payee's estimated tax liability justifies it. The certificate is prospective only — once issued, the deductor relies on it for that specific deductor-deductee-section combination. It cannot regularise past short-deduction defaults retrospectively but is the strategic tool for future quarters where the deductee's effective rate is structurally lower than the statutory TDS rate.

Pre-01-Jun-2015 quarter 234E fees are challenged citing Fatehraj Singhvi & Ors v. UoI [2016] 73 taxmann.com 252 (Kar HC) — Section 200A(1)(c) was inserted only w.e.f. 01-Jun-2015. CPC-TDS / ITAT benches across India follow this ratio. Multi-lakh fee demands wiped out for Padi Industrial Estate clients.
Each interest row in the Justification Report is recomputed manually — date-deductible, date-deducted, date-deposited audited against challans and books. Form 26A truncation up to deductee return-date applied to the 1% leg. Average interest reduction: 35% to 60%.
Once Form 26A is accepted on TRACES, the second proviso to Section 40(a)(ia) is invoked in the deductor's Section 143(3) assessment to defeat the 30% expense disallowance — Form 26A pulls double duty for Padi Industrial Estate clients.
Our team handles every Online Correction category — C-1 challan correction, C-2 add challan, C-3 personal info, C-4 salary detail, C-5 deductee detail, C-6 row movement, C-7 PAN-Aadhaar, C-8 add challan with row, C-9 PAN correction. Conso File downloaded, corrected, validated through FVU and uploaded same day.
Where the underlying statement is correct but CPC-TDS has wrongly raised default — challan paid but not visible due to OLTAS / BIN issue, double-counted interest — Default Rectification Request is raised on TRACES; CPC-TDS Ghaziabad responds in 30-45 days.
For Section 195 short-deduction on software / cloud / SaaS payments to non-residents, Engineering Analysis Centre of Excellence v. CIT [2021] 432 ITR 471 (SC) is invoked — payment is not royalty under DTAA Article 12, no TDS obligation, no 201 default, no 40(a)(i) disallowance.

Every claim on this page can be traced back to a section or rule below.
Sub-section (1) of Section 200 of the Income-tax Act 1961 casts an obligation upon every person deducting any sum in accordance with the provisions of Chapter XVII-B to pay the sum so deducted to the credit of the Central Government, within the prescribed time and in the prescribed mode. It is to be noted that the obligation is fastened on the deductor in his capacity as an agent of the revenue, and the deposit is a precondition for the deductee being entitled to the corresponding credit. Sub-rule (1) of Rule 30 prescribes seven days from the end of the month of deduction, except for March deductions where the cut-off is the thirtieth day of April.
View sourceSub-section (1) of Section 201 provides that where a person who is required to deduct tax fails to deduct, or, having deducted, fails to pay the whole or any part of the tax to the credit of the Central Government, he shall be deemed to be an assessee in default in respect of such tax. The first proviso, inserted with effect from the first day of July 2012, carves out a relief — the deductor shall not be deemed in default if the deductee has furnished a return under Section 139, has taken the receipt into the computation of total income and paid the tax due, and the deductor furnishes a certificate in Form 26A from an accountant.
View sourceSection 271H provides that without prejudice to the provisions of the Act, the Assessing Officer may direct that a person who fails to deliver a statement within the time prescribed in Section 200(3), or who furnishes incorrect information in such statement, shall pay, by way of penalty, a sum which shall not be less than ten thousand rupees but which may extend to one lakh rupees. Sub-section (3) carves out an immunity where the tax, interest and fee have been paid and the statement has been delivered before the expiry of one year from the time prescribed for delivery. It is to be noted that the immunity is statutory and not discretionary.
View sourceClause (ia) of Section 40(a) provides that thirty per cent of any sum payable to a resident on which tax is deductible under Chapter XVII-B and such tax has not been deducted, or after deduction has not been paid on or before the due date specified in Section 139(1), shall not be deducted in computing the income chargeable under the head Profits and Gains of Business or Profession. The first proviso permits a deduction in the subsequent year in which the tax is actually paid. The second proviso, inserted by the Finance Act 2012, extends the Section 201(1) first-proviso relief to disallowance, where Form 26A is on record.
View sourceSub-section (1A) of Section 201 prescribes simple interest at one per cent for every month or part of a month from the date on which such tax was deductible to the date on which it is deducted, and at one and one-half per cent for every month or part of a month from the date on which it was deducted to the date on which it is actually paid. It is to be noted that the second proviso truncates the one per cent leg up to the date on which the deductee furnishes the return under Section 139, where the first proviso to sub-section (1) is invoked through Form 26A. Sub-section (1A) is mandatory and not subject to assessing officer discretion.
View sourceRule 31ACB prescribes Form 26A as the certificate from an accountant under the first proviso to sub-section (1) of Section 201, certifying that the deductee has furnished a return under Section 139, has taken into account the receipt for the computation of income and has paid the tax due thereon. Sub-rule (2) requires the certificate to be furnished electronically through the TRACES portal, accompanied by Annexure A from the chartered accountant. It is to be noted that the certificate, once accepted, extinguishes both the Section 201(1) default and, by virtue of the second proviso to Section 40(a)(ia), the corresponding disallowance.

Under Section 201(3) as substituted by Finance (No. 2) Act 2024, the AO must pass the Section 201 order within seven years from the end of the financial year in which the payment is made or credit is given to the deductee.
Appeal lies under Section 246A(1)(ha) before the CIT(A) operating through the National Faceless Appeal Centre within 30 days of the order. Further appeal lies to ITAT under Section 253 and to Madras High Court under Section 260A on substantial questions of law.
Yes. Under the first proviso to Section 201(1) read with Rule 31ACB, if the deductee has filed its return, disclosed the income and paid tax, you obtain a CA certificate in Form 26A and upload on TRACES. Primary Section 201 liability is then dropped.
The Supreme Court in CIT v Hindustan Coca-Cola Beverages P Ltd held that once the deductee has paid the tax on the income, the deductor cannot be treated as an assessee-in-default for the same amount. Form 26A operationalises this principle under Rule 31ACB.
The Supreme Court in GE India Technology Centre v CIT held that Section 195 TDS obligation arises only where the sum payable is chargeable to tax in India. If the income is not chargeable under domestic law or under a DTAA, no Section 195 deduction is required.
Section 234E is compensatory in character, not penal. The Karnataka HC in Fatheraj Singhvi and the Bombay HC in Rashmikant Kundalia have upheld its constitutionality. The fee is automatic at ₹200 per day capped at the TDS amount of the statement.

The Tax Deduction at Source mechanism in India under Chapter XVII-B of the Income Tax Act 1961 implements what the OECD framework calls a pay-as-you-earn collection design. It is to be noted that the policy goal traces to the Direct Taxes Enquiry Committee 1971 (Wanchoo Committee) recommendation that revenue collection be advanced to the point of accrual rather than the point of assessment, reducing tax arrears and broadening the information base. The Comptroller and Auditor General's 2017 performance audit on TDS administration observed that approximately 36% of direct-tax revenue is now collected at source, against an OECD-area average of roughly 60% for income subject to withholding. A TDS notice therefore performs a dual function — it is both a revenue-recovery instrument addressed to the deductor as the assessee-in-default under Section 201, and an information-correction instrument under Section 200A reconciling the deductor return with deductee credit claims in Form 26AS.
TDS communications received by Chennai deductors broadly fall into five categories distinguishable by their statutory anchor. First, Section 200A(1) intimations are issued by the Centralised Processing Cell-TDS at Vaishali Ghaziabad on prima-facie defaults identified during return-processing. Second, Section 201(1) default orders are issued by jurisdictional Assessing Officer (TDS) on substantive non-deduction or short-deduction post-enquiry. Third, Section 234E demand notices arise from late-filing fee at ₹200 per day of delay. Fourth, Section 271H penalty notices follow non-filing exceeding one year or false-particulars. Fifth, Section 220 recovery and Section 221 penalty notices follow non-payment beyond 30 days. Each category invokes a distinct response framework, distinct limitation period and distinct appellate route — conflating them is the single most common defence error observed in the Madras ITAT TDS-Bench rulings since 2018.
The TDS Reconciliation Analysis and Correction Enabling System (TRACES) is the operational interface through which CPC-TDS communicates with deductors. Sub-rule (2) of Rule 31A of the Income Tax Rules 1962 provides that every default identified during processing is recorded on TRACES with a downloadable Justification Report — a PDF and CSV deliverable that lists row-wise the challan, deductee PAN, section, deduction-amount, default-head and amount-in-default. The Justification Report carries indicative computations only; the binding figures are those in the Section 200A intimation and the consequential demand on the TRACES dashboard. The TRACES architecture follows the OECD Forum on Tax Administration's 2014 design template on digital-by-default tax-payer-services, mirrored in similar withholding-platforms in the United Kingdom (HMRC RTI) and Australia (ATO Single Touch Payroll).
Section 201 distinguishes — though not always explicitly — between non-deduction (no TDS deducted at all), short-deduction (TDS deducted at a rate or amount lower than what was required), late-deduction (TDS deducted after the prescribed time), and non-deposit (TDS deducted but not deposited with the exchequer). The interest-rate under Section 201(1A) is 1% per month for non-deduction and short-deduction, and 1.5% per month for the deduction-not-deposited category. The disallowance under Section 40(a)(ia) attaches only to non-deduction and non-deposit categories — short-deduction by rate does not invite disallowance per the Calcutta High Court ruling in S.K. Tekriwal, since-followed by multiple benches.
Sub-section (1) of Section 201 provides that where any person, including the principal officer of a company, who is required to deduct tax at source does not deduct, or after such deduction fails to pay, the whole or any part of the tax, such person shall be deemed to be an assessee in default in respect of the tax. The Supreme Court in CIT v Eli Lilly & Co India observed that the deeming fiction operates only when there is a primary failure on the part of the deductor — a benign deductor who has acted on a reasonable interpretation of the law cannot be visited with the deemed-default tag. The proviso to Section 201(1) inserted by Finance Act 2012 carves out a relief where the deductee has filed return and paid tax — operationalised through Form 26A.
Form 26A is the operational vehicle for the first proviso to Section 201(1). It requires a chartered accountant in practice to certify that the deductee has — first, included the relevant payment in computing taxable income in the return filed under Section 139, second, paid the tax on the income, and third, furnished the deductor a declaration to this effect. The Form is filed by the deductor through the TRACES portal with the chartered accountant signing Annexure A on Digital Signature Certificate. On acceptance, the Section 201(1) principal-default head is reduced to NIL but the Section 201(1A) interest survives. The Mumbai ITAT in JDS Apparels held that Form 26A is a complete remedy on the principal head.
Sub-section (3) of Section 234E provides that the fee shall not exceed the amount of tax deductible or collectible. The cap operates at the statement-level, not at the deductee-level — Mumbai ITAT in Sonal Vyas v ITO held that where the quarterly TDS deductible is ₹1.2 lakh and the delay-days × ₹200 computes to ₹1.8 lakh, the fee is capped at ₹1.2 lakh. Computational disputes commonly arise on the day-count — whether the delay is counted from the original due-date or from any extended date notified by CBDT under press-release. The conservative position is to count from the original due-date and seek reduction citing the extension order on merits.
Since Section 234E fee is levied via Section 200A intimation, the rectification remedy under Section 154 is available where the levy contains a mistake apparent from the record. Such mistakes include — fee levied for the period prior to 01-Jun-2015 (post Fatehraj Singhvi where applicable bench), fee exceeding the tax-deductible cap, fee levied where the statement was filed within the due-date but acknowledged late on TRACES owing to portal failure, and fee continued despite a notified CBDT extension. The Section 154 application must be filed within four years from the end of the financial year in which the order was passed. Where 154 is rejected, the appeal route under Section 246A is available.
Section 234E was inserted by Finance Act 2012 with effect from 01-Jul-2012 levying a fee of ₹200 per day of delay in filing the quarterly TDS statement, capped at the amount of tax deductible. Sub-section (4) of Section 234E declares the fee non-leviable in the cases prescribed — but no such prescription has been issued by CBDT to date. The fee is a fee in the technical sense (a charge for services rendered by the department's processing-system) rather than a penalty, as held by the Karnataka HC in Lakshminirman Bangalore. This technical classification is significant — fee does not require mens rea, is not appealable under Section 246A on merits, and is not subject to Section 273B reasonable-cause relief.
Sub-section (3) of Section 271H provides a safe-harbour — penalty shall not be levied where the deductor proves that — clause (a) the tax deducted along with interest has been paid to the credit of Central Government, and clause (b) the statement has been delivered before the expiry of one year from the time prescribed for delivery. The safe-harbour operates on a cumulative basis — both conditions must be satisfied. The Mumbai ITAT in Saroj Singh ruled that even one-day delay beyond the one-year limit takes the deductor outside the safe-harbour and the penalty becomes leviable, subject only to Section 273B reasonable-cause defence.
Section 273B operates as an overlay on Section 271H — even where the safe-harbour under 271H(3) is unavailable, the penalty cannot be imposed if the deductor shows reasonable cause for the failure. Reasonable cause has been judicially construed to include — system-level TRACES outage substantiated by TIN-NSDL acknowledgement, statutory auditor's strike preventing finalisation, key-person illness or demise with hospital records, and tax-credit-pending-reconciliation with the deductee that legitimately delayed filing. The defence is fact-intensive and the documentary trail must be contemporaneous. The Supreme Court in Hindustan Steel underpins the principle that technical or venial breach should not attract penalty.
Section 271H is distinct from two adjacent penalty / prosecution provisions. Section 271C imposes a penalty equal to the amount of tax that ought to have been deducted on failure to deduct — operating on non-deduction itself, whereas 271H operates on non-filing-of-statement or false-particulars. Section 276B is the prosecution provision for failure to pay TDS deducted to the credit of Central Government, attracting rigorous imprisonment of three months to seven years. Section 278AA provides a defence to 276B where reasonable cause is shown. The Madras HC in Madhumilan Syntex Ltd applied a strict reading on 276B prosecution where deduction-and-non-deposit was established.
What Padi Industrial Estate clients usually ask next: Where Padi Industrial Estate differs: for Padi Industrial Estate units balancing production cycles with monthly GST and quarterly TDS compliance.
TAN-PAN Linkage is the mapping between the deductor's Tax Deduction Account Number and Permanent Account Number maintained at NSDL. A correct linkage is required for Section 197 lower-deduction certificate applications, Section 195 Form 15CA / 15CB filings, and for the deductor's income-tax 26AS credit on TDS deducted from its own receipts.
Section 197 Lower-Deduction Certificate is the certificate issued by the AO TDS authorising the deductor to deduct TDS at a lower rate, or nil, on payments to a specific deductee, where the deductee has demonstrated that his projected income justifies a lower rate. Applied online in Form 13 through TRACES with twelve-month validity within the same FY.
Form 15CA is the deductor's declaration filed online on the income-tax portal before a foreign remittance, and Form 15CB is the accompanying Chartered Accountant certificate where the remittance exceeds five lakh rupees in the FY and is chargeable to tax. The pair operationalises Section 195 / Rule 37BB for non-resident TDS compliance.
Form 24Q Annexure II is the year-end salary detail annexure filed only with the Q4 24Q statement, containing employee-wise salary breakup, Section 10 exemptions, Section 16 standard deduction, Chapter VI-A deductions and tax computation. Errors in Annexure II are the most common Section 271H incorrect-statement triggers and require Online Correction Category C-5.
Section 220(6) Stay of Demand is the discretionary stay granted by the AO pending disposal of an appeal under Section 246A / 248 against an order raising the demand. CBDT Instruction 1914 (as amended) lays down the framework — typically twenty per cent pre-deposit; lower threshold available on prima-facie merits or financial hardship.
Tax Deducted at Source is the mechanism under Chapter XVII-B of the Income-tax Act 1961 whereby the payer of certain specified sums withholds tax at prescribed rates at the time of credit or payment, whichever is earlier, and deposits it to the credit of the Central Government on behalf of the recipient.
Deductor is the person required by Chapter XVII-B of the Income-tax Act to deduct tax at source at the time of credit or payment of specified sums. The deductor functions as an agent of the revenue and bears both the deposit obligation under Section 200(1) and the statement-filing obligation under Section 200(3).
Deductee is the person from whose income tax has been deducted at source by the payer. The deductee is entitled to claim credit for the tax deducted against the eventual self-assessed liability under Section 199, provided the deduction is reflected in Form 26AS or the Annual Information Statement.
Tax Deduction and Collection Account Number is the ten-character alphanumeric account number allotted under Section 203A of the Income-tax Act to every person required to deduct or collect tax at source. The number must be quoted on all TDS challans, statements and certificates issued by the deductor.
Centralised Processing Cell — TDS is the unit established by the Central Board of Direct Taxes at Ghaziabad for the centralised processing of quarterly TDS statements filed under Section 200(3) and for the issue of intimations and orders under Section 200A. The cell maintains the TRACES portal interface.
TRACES is the TDS Reconciliation Analysis and Correction Enabling System portal operated by the Centralised Processing Cell — TDS at Ghaziabad. It serves as the interface for deductors and deductees to view default summaries, download Form 16, Form 16A, Form 26AS, Conso File and the Justification Report.
Justification Report is the PDF and CSV document auto-generated by the Centralised Processing Cell — TDS through TRACES, listing every default head — short payment, short deduction, late deduction, late payment, interest and fee — raised against a processed quarterly TDS statement, used as the source dataset for reply.
