Form 26AS is a vital document in your income tax return that serves as a passbook for your tax deposits.

It is critical to match the tax credit figures on Form 26AS with those on Form 16 or Form 16A.

There could be several reasons for the error in Form 26AS. The amount of TDS deducted from salary or interest by the employer or bank is frequently incorrect. When filing your TDS return, the TDS deductor may quote the incorrect PAN number against your name, resulting in an error on your Form 26AS.
