Please note that TDS on rent is only applicable for people showing more than Rs 50000 per month as rent for saving tax. Lately there has been lot of cases where either people submit fake rent receipts to save tax and this act is supposed to stop these practices.

It is also proposed to provide that such tax shall be deducted and deposited only once in a financial year through a challan-cum-statement. Further, the deductor shall not be required to obtain TAN or file any separate TDS return for this purpose.

Income tax rectification needs to be filed when you have made a mistake while filing your return and wants to fix it now.
