    this problem we land up by either being emotional to impress wife or being smart to fool tax authorities. but it back fires.

    any way this issue came up in one of the forums of interaction with IT authorities and they promised to take it up with their higher ups, but i do not know what is the outcome, may be we need to research.

    any way try to keep lufe SIMPLE

  2. Dear Etaxmentor, there is a big problem in the whole reply given by you. The money was yours’ & you invested the same under your wife’s name. Now TDS on the FD intereste was debited & credited into Govt. Record against your wife’s name & pan. whereas as per clubbing provisions of section 64, this interest is liable to tax in your own name as the money is yours’ & you gave it to your spouse.

    How are you going to rectify the problem of PAN updation so that first the TDS can be shown against your name & PAN Then only the question of filing ITR arise.

    thanks
