Form 16 is the TDS certificate an employer gives an employee for tax deducted from salary. Form 16A is the TDS certificate for tax deducted on payments other than salary, such as professional fees, contractor payments, rent or interest.
Both are certificates of tax deducted and deposited, and the amounts should match what appears against your PAN in Form 26AS and AIS.
