Sir,
One of my clients got a notice of order to pay TDS on salary with interest etc along with challan sent by Income tax office.
Actually the amount shown in the order is incorrect and due to the mistake in the E/TDS return filed.
The problem was due to in the e filing return instead of showing the employees salary as WOMEN it is incorrectly shown as OTHERS.
So the TDS deducted seen to have been made short when it is calculated for MEN.
Actually for women it is correct.However notice says to pay money.
What should we do.
Can i correct the e return for the year by filing correction returns. or any other remedy other than filing appleal to commissioner for this mistake in efiling.

Hi Expert
Will highly appreciate if you can clarify my doubts on below situation, there are some technical points in below case - request you attention to each of the points below:
X bought a house property (Property A) in Mumbai in 2005 and sold the property in Jan 2011. LT Capital Gain on this transaction comes to Rs. 23 lacs.
X also bought a residential property (Property B) for use of his parents in another city in Jun 10 jointly in four names (self, brother, mother and father). Property is under construction with delivery date of Sept 2011. Registration of property to be done at time of possession.
Agreement value for the new property including parking is 52 lacs. Of which Rs. 15 lacs (initial contribution) has been paid from X’s own sources and Rs. 32 lacs has been financed by bank loan. Rs. 5 lacs is payable to builder on possession.
Initial contribution of Rs. 15 lacs paid by X was paid through his father’s a/c, this was done to facilitate prompt transfer to the seller (since X resides in a different city). X had to transfer these 15 lacs to his father’s a/c from where cheque was issued to seller. X has solely been servicing loan EMI and is expected to do same for life of loan.
Sec 54 says that the capital gain arising from sale above can be offset against the cost of the new asset if the asessee has within a period of one year before or two years after the date on which the transfer took place purchased, or has within a period of three years after that date constructed, a residential house.
In addition to Property A and B, X has invested in 3 more residential properties (all in city of his current residence). A couple of which are already on rent and chargeable to income tax under the head "Income from house property" and the remaining one is still under construction
Question:
1. Can capital gain from Property A be offset against the cost of acquisition of Property B u/s 54
2. Since property B has not yet been registered, will it have a bearing on claiming tax exemption
3. Also will the initial contribution routed via father’s a/c (though merely to facilitate transaction) have an impact
4. In case answer to 1 is yes, what will be the amount of offset.
a. Entire capital gain since cost of Property B is less than Capital gain of Property A. In this case are their any guidelines towards use of the proceeds from sale of Property A or the entire proceeds can it be freely used.
b. Or only self contribution of Rs. 15 lacs can be offset.
c. What wld be the treatment of remaining capital gain of Rs. 8 lacs. Can the same be offset be prepaying the home loan on Property B. If not wld this excess amt need to be deposited with SBI in an identified capital gain account.
d. And will payment towards final payment to builder and towards registration and stamp duty qualify.

HI All,
My cousin is MALLB. She married 8 years ago.She had taken "certificate of practice" before few days of getting married. After marriage , she got involved in daily chores of family life and did not practiced at all.All of sudden yesterday she got a call from her mother that she has received a notice from income tax department. The notice to show cause why a panalty of rs 5/20 rs per day of delay should not be imposed for not taking "enrolment/registration" certificate.
As mentioned, she is housewife and never practiced. She is embarrassed as being qualified , she does not know about what is the provision about enrollment.
What is to be done? what is the option left for her. what reply she should give to notice?
She is going to surrender the practice certificate this week.

TDS without Payment
A company is not making any payment against our various bills. But online TDS details (26A) are showing that the company has deposited TDS in June 2010 against two payments of Rupees one lac each on 31 March 2010. Please suggest solution for the same as the company is not responding.
