Frequently Asked Questions
No matter what your source of income is, we've got you covered. There's a plan for everybody!
Why Does AIS Show More Income Than Form 26AS?⌄
AIS shows all income and transactions reported against your PAN, such as interest, dividends, and property sales. Form 26AS shows only taxes deducted or paid. So AIS usually has more entries, even when your tax credit in Form 26AS is correct.
Can NRIs File ITR If AIS and Form 26AS Do Not Match?⌄
Yes, you can file. But always report your actual income and claim only the TDS you can prove. If the mismatch is large, try to fix it first, because it can lead to a notice or a delayed refund.
How Can I Correct Wrong Information in AIS?⌄
Log in to the e-Filing portal, open AIS, and click Feedback on the wrong entry. Choose the right option, add the correct details, and submit. If the source itself is wrong, also ask the bank or deductor to correct their report.
How Do I Claim TDS Not Showing in Form 26AS?⌄
First collect Form 16A and bank proof. Ask the deductor to file or correct the TDS return. If it still does not show before you file, claim the credit that appears in Form 26AS and revise your return later once it updates.
Does AIS Feedback Automatically Correct Form 26AS?⌄
No. AIS feedback only changes how the information is shown in AIS. Form 26AS depends on the TDS return filed by the deductor, so only the deductor can correct it by filing a correction statement.
Do NRIs Need to Check AIS Even If They Have No Tax Payable?⌄
Yes. Even with no tax payable, AIS shows what income is reported on your PAN, which helps you avoid notices. It also helps you claim a TDS refund correctly when tax was already deducted.
