TDS Return Filing – Overview
TDS Return Filing is a mandatory compliance requirement under the Income Tax Act for
deductors who deduct tax at source while making specified payments such as salary,
professional fees, rent, interest, or contractor payments.
TDS returns contain details of tax deducted, challans deposited, and deductee information,
which are filed quarterly in prescribed forms like Form 24Q, 26Q, 27Q, and 27EQ.
Accurate and timely filing ensures proper credit to deductees and avoids penalties,
interest, and notices from the Income Tax Department.
