GST & TAX · INDIA
TDS return filing connects the tax deducted from payments with deductee details, statutory deposits and the correct period's statement. Reliable preparation starts with a reconciled deduction ledger and payment records, not a spreadsheet of PANs alone. LIQUETAX helps organise the agreed quarterly statement, validate the data and identify missing facts before you approve submission.

BUILT AROUND YOUR BUSINESS
Employers, businesses and tax deductors preparing a current quarter, resolving a rejected statement or reviewing older periods. For example, a business correcting a FY 2025-26 statement while filing Tax Year 2026-27 needs period-correct forms and section references. The current Income Tax Department guidance distinguishes the old and new frameworks instead of treating every TDS filing as identical.

GET READY, ONE STEP AT A TIME
We’ll share an applicant-specific checklist after a short discussion. The exact records depend on your circumstances.

FROM FIRST CONVERSATION TO HANDOVER
We prepare, coordinate and track the agreed work. You stay involved in the decisions that matter.
Confirm the period, payment categories and previous filing position.
Review the agreed ledger, PAN and challan information and document differences.
Prepare the period-correct file and explain unresolved matters before upload.
Check available status and retain acknowledgements and validation evidence.
Agree the preparation estimate after reviewing the deduction ledger and deposits. Official due dates, extensions and correction limits must be checked for the actual period and route. Upload, validation and later processing are separate stages, so the handover records the available status rather than promising instant clearance.
KNOW EXACTLY WHERE YOU STAND
The written engagement confirms your deliverables and costs before work starts.
ANSWERS BEFORE YOU BEGIN
Need help with your specific situation?
Talk to our teamThe current Department manual identifies Form 138 as the successor to Form 24Q under the Income-tax Act, 2025. The relevant year matters. Old-period statements and corrections should be handled under the framework that applies to those records rather than renamed indiscriminately.
References: Income Tax Department: Form 138 user manual
The Department permits old-period corrections under the applicable earlier framework, even when filed later. We check the statement's permitted correction period and route before accepting the work.

No. Depositing deducted tax and reporting it in the correct statement are connected but distinct duties. We reconcile the available payment records with the proposed filing. Professional preparation does not include statutory payments unless the engagement expressly describes how they are coordinated.
They help determine the applicable period and legal treatment. Transition cases can depend on when the relevant deduction-triggering event occurred, and salary has its own rule. Providing only the bank payment date can omit material facts needed to select the correct reporting treatment.

The Department's manual describes validation and a visible acceptance or rejection status. The reason needs to be examined, such as a year, TAN or utility-version mismatch. The quote identifies the correction support included; later processing issues are assessed from the actual communication.

We can scope a reconciliation of the statement, challan, deductee identifiers and available processing records. A correction is chosen only after the mismatch is understood. No tax-credit or demand-removal outcome is guaranteed, and historic periods should be identified separately.

| Question | What matters | Next step |
|---|---|---|
| Period and applicable law | Identify the financial or tax year, quarter, payment category and original or correction route. | The Income-tax Act, 2025 applies from the relevant April 2026 transition. Earlier-period corrections still use the applicable old framework. |
| Statement selection | Map salary, resident-payment, non-resident and transaction-specific information to the correct current form. | The Department identifies Form 138 as the successor to Form 24Q. Other categories and challan-cum-statements require their own checks. |
| Challan reconciliation | Match deducted amounts, dates, deposit records and allocation to the proposed statement. | A bank debit alone is not a complete reconciliation. Investigate unmatched challans and wrong-year or wrong-section references before submission. |
| Deductee and validation | Verify PAN information, payment details and the correct utility/version before generating the filing file. | A successful upload may still need validation and processing. Retain the accepted status and identify any later correction responsibility. |
