Facts Summary

The assessee, Abhishek Kanoria, filed his return of income for the assessment year 2021-22 declaring total income of Rs.35,47,500/- as income from salary and interest income of Rs.5,055/-. The Centralized Processing Center (CPC) processed the return under section 143(1) of the Act on 19.01.2022 by granting TDS credit of only Rs.7,75,595/-, whereas the appellant has claimed TDS credit of Rs.8,45,595/- during the impugned assessment year. The assessee filed a rectification petition on 03.01.2023 under section 154 of the Income Tax Act before CPC, but the same was rejected by CPC. Aggrieved with the order of the Assessing Officer/CPC, the assessee preferred an appeal before the Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals), which was dismissed. The assessee then preferred an appeal before the ITAT.
