• NEW DELHI: The government on Friday said annexures and certificates relating to tax deducted at source like Form-16 are not required to be submitted along with income tax returns. “No annexures, TDS/TCS certificates are required to be annexed to the returns of income. Wherever, documents are attached with the return, the receiving official is required to detach and return to the tax payers all such annexures,” the Central Board of Direct Taxes said in a statement. It said that original documents and certificates may be produced by assessees as and when called for by the assessing officer.
