Facts
AIS takes salary from employers' TDS statements. Differences come from arrears, final settlement paid later, perquisites, or reporting errors.
Provisions and law
- Sec 285BB, Income-tax Act 1961 (now Sec 510)AIS shows information reported to the department, including salary from TDS statements.
Analysis
If AIS shows ₹15,60,000 but the two Form 16s add to ₹15,00,000, look for leave encashment or a final settlement paid by the old employer in a later month. If it is a genuine omission, include it. If it is wrong, give AIS feedback and keep payslips as proof.
Conclusion
- List salary in AIS by employer.
- Compare with each Form 16 Part B.
- Find the extra amount.
- Include it if genuine, or give AIS feedback if wrong.
- Keep supporting payslips.
