The mandate of Section 205 is clear that the assessee shall not be called upon to pay taxes himself to the extent tax has been deducted from the assessee's income. The object is that when the obligation to deposit tax is on the employer and the employer defaults, the liability cannot be shifted to the employee who is the beneficiary of the payment. The department foisted the liability on the petitioners without legal warrant, clearly violating Section 205. The impugned demand notices issued to the petitioners stand quashed and set aside for breaching Section 205. However, if there are other tax demands from the petitioners on any other count, those issues are kept open and not adjudicated.
