Comments
This is very useful facility and will make the task of deductor simpler.
• The biggest advantage is ability to retrieve eTDS Statement filed earlier. Several deductors do not keep backup of eTDS statement FVU files and when a correction is to be filed, they have no recourse.
• Another problem being faced by deductors is to keep track of original FVU and correction FVU. Many times several correction statements need to be filed e.g. when valid PAN become available. Hopefully, NSDL should be able to provide the updated FVU online for further creation of correction.
• At present, a deductor has to go to several links for information retrieval e.g. Challan Status Enquiry, quarterly statement status, eTDS online filing. With this new facility it is expected that all these services will be available in a single window.

November 18th, 2009W.e.f. November 1, 2009 If office address is selected as communication address by Individual and HUF applicants applying for New PAN (Form 49A), then Proof of Address for office address is also required.
