  Reasons for Zero Credit in Form 16B
  
  
  It has been observed that deductors are wrongly entering the tax amount deducted on sale of property in 'interest' or 'others' or 'fee' column while making the e-payment. Accordingly, zero TDS credit will appear in Form 16B.
  • Advise The Deductor (Buyer) should fill the amount of tax in 'TDS Amount to be Paid' field and not in 'Interest' or 'Fee' field. Else, the seller will not get the credit of such tax.
