Is It Normal Not to Receive Form 16 If You're Below the Tax Bracket? Seeking Clarity

p_navlakha
Hello, I'd like to know a little more about Form 16 for the last financial year. When I asked my employer for the same, I was told that since I do not come under the tax bracket, I will not be issued one as it is not necessary. I am still a little puzzled as I thought that it is mandatory for the company to issue one. I was told to use my salary slips for the same. As a result, I have gone ahead and filed my return without one. Please advise on the exact procedure as it will help me understand the process better. Thanks in advance. Regards!

Dear,

It is necessary for the company to provide Form 16 to its employees whether they are under the tax bracket or not. It's mandatory. Any employee can ask the employer for that.
