In the case of the present petitioner, as the TDS details had not shown of ITBA with PAN of assessee, the credit of the same was not feasible. The amount of TDS was of the husband of the assessee who expired on 3.2.2016. The petitioner was fair enough to offer the interest income received on account of the husband to offer the same in return of income. She has also paid the tax on the same and hence it is reflected in Form 26AS, as specifically ordered by the Commissioner (A). In such eventuality, instead of denying her, when the Commissioner (A) himself was convinced on reflection of the said amount on 26AS form, TDS could have been credited in the account of the petitioner.

In other words, for claiming the TDS, these details are available on ITBA, where credit of the same shall need to be given after PAN of the petitioner is ascertained. The petitioner is required to register as a representative/legal heir of the deceased and file return of income and then receive the TDS.
