TDS Return

A Tax Deduction contains details about individual payments and deductions to deductees. One deductee can have multiple deductions in a single quarter. Each challan can have several Tax Deductions associated with it. Along with deducting the tax and depositing the tax in the government account, the deductor is also required to file the return which has to be done in the form of a quarterly statement to the Income Tax department that is called TDS return. Ultimately TDS is not only to be deducted but to be filed.

A TDS return contains the following information:

  • Year, Quarter, and Type of TDS (Salary, Non-Salary, etc)
  • Deductor details
  • Challan details
  • Deductee and Tax Deduction details
  • Salary Details for all employees in the Financial Year (in case of a Q4 Salary Return)
