Consult in IT office or a CA in your area.

If the employer has deducted income tax from your salary, then it becomes his duty to deposit the same to the government immediately within one month, if he fails to do so then he will be considered to have done a crime.
On the basis of the details available about this in your salary slip you can file your income tax returns.
If the income tax department is making any enquiry about non payment of the tax deducted at source then the employer can be held liable for this.

Has the employer issued Form 16?

If you hve the evidence of the tax deducted from your salary, you can file the ITR without the employer providing the TDS certificate also, however you can demand the TDS certificate by giving an applicaiton in writing and enclose a copy of the same along with your ITR to make it clear that there is nothing wrong on your side due to this lapse.
The employee can claim the TDS credit manually while filing ITR. It can be done even if not reflected in 26AS, TIS or AIS forms. A notice may be sent to the employee by CPC for a mismatch in TDS credit.

M. Anbu Chezhian, yes, TDS deduction and deposit by the employer are mandatory wherever applicable. The employer must also file the TDS return with the correct PAN details so the credit reflects in your Form 26AS.
If TDS has been deducted but the employer hasn't filed the return or reported your details correctly, I would first ask them to revise the TDS return. If they don't, you can file a grievance through the Income Tax e-Filing portal or approach the Assessing Officer with your Form 16 and salary records. If you need help with the process, Kanakkupillai can assist in resolving the issue and ensuring your TDS credit is properly reflected.
