June 1, 2015 21582 Views 0 comment Print

As per Section 199 of the Act credit of Tax Deducted at Source is given to the person only if it is paid to the Central Government Account.

Thus the Act puts a bar on direct demand against the assessee in such cases and the demand on account of tax credit mismatch cannot be enforced coercively.
