    Sir, there is a mismatch in TDS in my IT return for 2018-19 FY. This happened due to erroneous IT return filed by the DDO. In spite of repeated correspondence, the DDO is not responding to it and not filing the rectified return. As a result IT Department has shown an outstanding due and has started adjusting refund due against OS due. How can it be solved and how the DDO can be made accountable?
