Hi Megha,
I have a very simple query, I hope! Mr. X's income for FY 2012-13 was Rs. 2,20,000. Now, the company that he works for, for some reason, decided to submit the TDS only at the end of the year. At that time, Mr. X submitted documents showing investments of Rs. 21,000. The Accountant said that since the total effective income became less than 2 lac, Mr. X need not pay any tax.
Now, if that is the case, what would be the steps taken by the Company, the Accountant, and Mr. X? That is, what documents should all of them submit, and what documents does Mr. X get and/or apply to show that he was excused from the tax? I hope my question is clear.
Thanks and Regards,

Hello Megha,
Mr. X's income for FY 2012-13 was Rs. 2,20,000. Less Investment of Rs. 21,000, then Net income of X = Rs. 1,99,000/-. In that case, he need not pay any amount on account of income tax. The steps that would be taken by the company are that the company may give a Salary Certificate to Mr. X instead of Form 16. The Accountant need not do anything with income tax. Mr. X may file a NIL income tax return with that proof of salary (Salary Certificate).
Thanks and Regards,

Hi Lokesh,
First of all, thank you for the simple and prompt reply. Really appreciate it.
Now, can you tell me, 1. what details should be included in the Salary Certificate? 2. Is it Form 16 or 16C or 16A? 3. Suppose the salary is Rs. 2,20,000 and no investment. The company has deducted TDS for Rs. 20,000. Does the company still give out Salary Certificate and/or Form 16?
I am asking because the company that I work for has not given anything to the employees who have crossed the 2 lakh bar. We know that TDS was deducted, but no documents were given to us.

You need to provide gross salary, investment made by the employee, and taxable salary in the salary certificate. Proof of investment should be kept as a record for future assessment by the TDS authority. You can also use Form 16, disclosing nil TDS.
If the company deducts TDS, they are required to issue Form 16. Please also check whether the same amount is being reflected in Form 26AS on the IT site.
