Friends, Some new flags have been inserted in TDS RPU. The deductors who prepare TDS return himself should read below detailed information regarding FLAG's used in TDS return. In case deductor do not enter below codes or entered wrong codes in TDS return, Income Tax Department will raise demand for the same. For example if flag wrongly selected as C and TDS deducted @ 2%,1% or 10% etc. Income Tax Department will charge higher rate @ 20% (due to selection of Flag C) and will issue demand for the balance amount .
