About TDS Return Filing
TDS (Tax Deducted at Source) returns are the quarterly statements that every deductor — employers, contractors, businesses — must file with the Income Tax Department, declaring TDS deducted and deposited during the quarter. Filing is mandatory regardless of the deduction amount.
Our service covers Forms 24Q (salary TDS), 26Q (non-salary domestic), 27Q (non-resident), and 27EQ (TCS). We reconcile against challans, generate Form 16/16A certificates, and resolve any default notices.
