Facts
Banks report TDS on payments to non-residents in a separate quarterly statement. If the bank used old or wrong PAN details, or has not filed, it will not show.
Provisions and law
- Sec 199, Income-tax Act 1961Credit for tax deducted is given to the person whose PAN is reported, for the year in which the income is assessable (2025 Act number to be confirmed).
- Sec 200(3), Income-tax Act 1961 (now Sec 397(3)(b))The deductor files quarterly TDS statements and can file correction statements to fix errors.
Analysis
NRO interest TDS is usually at a higher rate, so the credit matters for any refund. Get the TDS certificate from the bank and check your PAN and residential status in its records. Ask the bank to correct. File your return claiming the credit once it appears.
Conclusion
- Get the TDS certificate from the bank.
- Check PAN and residency details with the bank.
- Ask for a correction statement if wrong.
- Recheck 26AS.
- File and claim the credit.
