FORM 16 - Salary Slip

jmoktali
Hi,
I have worked in a recruitment co. for almost 4 months and quit the co. for better prospects. Now for some banking formalities I need the Form 16 from my previous employer, which he is not providing me.
I have salary slips and proof of salary credit on my bank statements. Its my right to get a Form 16 from the employer. Pls let me know how can I get this document from him. He is not at all ready to issue a Form 16 to me. What may be the reason for not giving a Form 16, when I was on the rolls of the company and have proof of employment.
Regards,
Jyoti

Hi,
Form 16 is certificate issued by Employer towards deduction of Tax from your salary.
Form 16 contains your earnings(income) during the year and deductions made out of salary towards Income Tax. This certificate is a proof that the employer deducted tax from your salary. It is the responsibility of the employer to give your Form 16 if they deducted any tax from your income.
While submitting your IT Return you need to attach( discontinued from this onwards ) Form 16 as a proof of deduction of tax.
Now, you need to get Form 16 from the employer if they deducted any tax from your salary. If not, it is not required.
For convincing bank, show your income proof (pay slips) with last six months bank statements.
Hope this may be useful. If any assistance required, please feel free to respond back.

HOW I CAN FILE IT RETURN WITHOUT FORM 16...

ALL THE BANKS ASK FOR LAST TWO YEAR IT RETURN FOR HOME LOAN..

I HAVE TO TAKE LOAN IN JANUARY AND AT THAT TIME AGAIN THE BANKS WILL ASK FOR 2015-15 IT RETURN.

I Left My Job In My Previous Organisation On 27th January 2015. As The Notice Period Was Less They Have Not Paid Almost Rs.68000.00 And Asked Me To Pay Rs.29000.00 Additional For Clearance. Under What Head They Have Deducted And Charged Me Was Not Told To Me. (But I Am Sure That They Have Done Mistake Of Not Deducting/Charging Income Tax).

As System Usually The Hotel Was Deducting The Income Tax (For Complete Financial Year) From Salary Of January, February And March. This Was The Practice Since Years.

Now Since The Month Of May I Have Written Several Mail And Communicated Telephonically Whether They Have Deducted My Tax Or Not They Didnt Replied Me. I Even Written The Mail At Corporate Office But They Also Didnt Replied. I Clearly Written That I Have To Take Loan In Coming Time Then Also They There Was No Concrete Reply. Every Time I Got The Reply That They Are Looking In To This.

FINALLY I ASKED THEM TO GIVE ME FORM 16 BUT THE CORPORATE OFFICE AND HOTEL UNIT DIDNT REPLIED.NOW ITS JUNE 2015 AND I HAVE TO FILE THE RETURN BUT I AM NOT GETTING ANYTHING RELATED TO INCOME TAX.
