While filing quarterly TDS electronic returns, department has specified that atleast 70% of the cases PAN is mandatory. Otherwise department is not accepting the returns. This circular was issued on 30.09.2007. Is there any exemption for the quarter ending 30.09.2007 ?

PAN requirement for e-TDS returns may block submission; file available PANs and use correction returns.
The department requires a prescribed minimum proportion of PAN quoted records in quarterly e TDS returns and applied that requirement to the quarter ended 30.09.2007 with no exemption or extension. If the prescribed PAN percentage is not available, the advised course is to file the e TDS return with cases that have PAN (including challan details) and later submit a correction return under the separate correction data structure; no specific time limit for corrections is specified.
