It is not compulsory. ITR can be filed on the basis of pay slips. But such details should match with Form 26AS even if no TDS deducted.

Form 16 will generated only when employer Deduct TDS on salary or either employer has given details of your salary in his/her TDS return (Showing TDS as NIL )
Presently form 16 is generated from TRACES site only as physical forms are not in used now a days.
