Sir, I am a govt deductor. I filed TDS returns for FY 2020-21 Q4. I got a notice for short deduction for Rs 6280/-. I submitted ITNS 281 for Rs 6280/- on 07 May. Subsequently, while preparing correction return, I added this challan (ITNS 281). However, i deleted the salary records of the default deductees. Now I am unable to add salary records for the deductees. How to proceed further? Pl advise
sir, advice how i correct PAN of employee, only salary details uploaded with return. i.e. no tax deduction made but only salary details uploaded.
