Do, I (employee) need to pay tax on salary deducted as bond?

I broke a employment bond and had to pay out 2 lakhs as bond.
I didn't receive salary for 3 months and paid rest of the bond amount by cash.

I looked up Form26AS, it has 157k in "Total Amount Paid/ Credited" but 0 in "TDS. Deposited"

Again, never got that amount credited to my bank account.

Do, I need to pay tax for that salary that I never recieved?

Also if I can’t chose options on fidelity, what should I do about it ? My firm opts only for Fidelity unless I’m wrong . Happy holidays . Thanks in advance

I had a great review and a 5.5% raise and a great bonus at my company. But I also got a new Director and a peer manager of mine left the company, so I will be absorbing her team. In addition, my director said I will be receiving 'deep delegation' from them. I don't mind more work, but deep delegation is a new term I've never heard. What does that mean lol?

Hi.. I am happy to join here. Seems to be an amazing platform.

I joined @mindtree in Jan 2022. Suddenly there is a 10k deduction in salary in the month of April. The salary slip say 10k deduction as INCOME TAX. Mindtree says "You come under 20% slab according to the income tax calculations. When all the tax slabs are applied you will have to pay yearly tax around Rs. X amount. So that amount will be deducted in monthly basis." Why sudden income tax deduction? Why was that not deducted in the month of Jan Feb March ? How can i recover that 10k every month?
