I planned visit to Jawai from Path adventure. The selection of property for stay was good into nature and served with good food in affordable price.
I had booked a tour with this agency in January and paid the mandatory Tax Collected at Source (TCS) as part of the package. Unfortunately, my experience regarding their financial compliance and custo (Read More)mer service has been terrible.
As the Income Tax Return (ITR) filing deadline (July 31st) approached, I noticed that the TCS amount collected by them was NOT reflecting in my Form 26AS / AIS. When I raised this issue, they initially gave excuses and assured me they would file their TCS return by July 10th.
Even after July 10th, the credit did not reflect in my income tax portal. I repeatedly followed up and requested basic proof of filing (such as Form 27D or a filing acknowledgment) to check if my PAN details were entered correctly. Instead of providing transparency or proof, they kept giving empty assurances like "it will reflect soon."
Because of their sheer negligence and complete lack of accountability, I had to file my ITR without the TCS reflection, causing unnecessary inconvenience and financial distress.
Travelers, beware: While they collect TCS upfront, their tax compliance process is extremely delayed, unorganized, and untransparent. If you care about your tax filing and hard-earned money, think twice before booking with them!
