Income tax · checked before filing
A difference between Form 16 and the Annual Information Statement is a check, not a filing error by itself. Future Tax compares those papers with Form 26AS before the return is filed. The office is at 515 Trichy Road, Singanallur.
This page is the check when Form 16, AIS, and Form 26AS disagree. Filing itself stays on the income-tax filing page. Do not send the income-tax password in chat. Call +91 94454 38387.
Form 16 is the certificate from the employer for salary and the tax deducted on that salary. The Annual Information Statement can list salary, interest, dividends, securities, and other information reported against the PAN. Form 26AS shows tax credits such as TDS and TCS. The credit in the return should follow 26AS. An AIS row is information to check, not an automatic addition.
If Form 16 and the payslips agree, use those figures. If AIS is higher, check a second employer, a perquisite, or a row reported under the wrong PAN. Do not leave out salary that was paid.
Form 16 often omits bank interest. Use the interest certificate. Include interest that was credited to you.
Do not copy an AIS sale, dividend, or interest row into the return until the broker statement, interest certificate, or employer record supports it. A wrong PAN can place someone else's information on your AIS. Feedback on the AIS is a separate step on the income-tax portal. That feedback does not by itself change the return.
Claim the credit that Form 26AS shows. If Form 16 shows more tax deducted than 26AS, ask the employer to correct the statement before you rely on the extra credit. The salary can still be shown.
Income-tax work starts at ₹2,000 on the Coimbatore income-tax page. A file with several mismatches costs more. The quote is confirmed before filing. The first discussion is free. The length depends on the file. A difference left in the return can show up in a 143(1) intimation.
No. Form 16 is the employer certificate. Bank interest, a second employer, and other AIS rows that are yours still belong in the return.
No. Do not copy a row into the return until a salary slip, interest certificate, or broker statement supports it. A wrong PAN can place someone else's information on your AIS.
It can. An intimation under section 143(1) compares the return with information available to the department. Read that intimation on the notice page. A reply depends on the documents and the due date on the notice.
