TDS Due Dates of FY 2022-23 for Return Filing

The TDS is the tax* deducted at the source, and there are specified dates up till which you can file TDS returns. If you do not adhere to the given timelines, you will have to face penalties and fines.

Tax* Deducted at Source, also known as TDS, is the tax that has to be deducted by the payer for certain payments that they have made. Certain payments on which TDS is deducted include salary payments, commission, rent, professional fees, interest, etc. 
 

Usually, the recipient of the income has to pay the income tax. But, through TDS, the government ensures that the income tax is deducted before you make a payment. There are TDS payment due dates that one has to adhere to. 
 

The TDS due dates are specified by the government to ensure that you file the TDS returns on time. The forms for filing the TDS returns have to be submitted at specified intervals and there are certain documents like PAN, TAN, etc., required to be submitted along with these forms. There are specified deadlines for submitting these forms and not adhering to these deadlines can lead to penalties and fines. 
 

Read on to get more information on the TDS return due dates.

Forms to File TDS Return

Here is the list of forms for filing the TDS returns:
 

Form 24Q

This is a quarterly statement of TDS that mentions the tax deducted on the payment of salary.

Form 26Q

This is a quarterly statement of TDS that mentions the tax deducted on the payment of interest payment, professional fees, etc.

Form 27Q

This is a quarterly statement of TDS that mentions the tax deducted on the payment (other than salary) to a foreign company or non-resident (not a company).


If the TDS has been deducted under Sections 194-IB and 194-IA, the deductor will have to enter a challan and statement in forms 26QC and 26QC. The challan has to be submitted within a period of 30 days from the end of the month in which the tax has been deducted. In this case, there is no separate return needed.

Penalties on Late Filing of the TDS Return

Here are the details of the penalties for late filing of the TDS returns:
 

  • Section 243E

    The person who has to collect or deduct the TDS is liable to pay a fine of ₹200/day for each day until they have filed the TDS. The deductor will have to pay the fine for each day till they file the TDS and until the amount of fine that has to be paid is equal to the TDS amount that they have to pay.
     

    For example, suppose you have deducted the TDS of ₹7000 on 12th May 2023, and you finally file the TDS on 18th November 2023 instead of the Q1 deadline of 31st July 2023.
     

    The total number of days that you have delayed is 110 days (from 1st August to 18th November). 
     

    The amount that you are liable to pay as a fine will come out to be ₹22000 (200x109 days), but as the amount of TDS is ₹7000, you will have to pay 7000 as a fine. 
     

    Also, you will have to pay an interest on the deposit that you have delayed. 

  • Section 271H

    If the TDS statement is not filed on the due date, the assessing officer might ask the deductor to pay a minimum fine of ₹10,000 that can go up to ₹1 lakh. This amount is in addition to the penalty that is paid under Section 243E.

 Due Dates for Filing the TDS Deducted

The government as well as other deductors have different due dates when it comes to the taxes that have been deducted in the month of March 2023. The deadline for the government to pay any taxes that have been withheld is 7th April 2023 while for the others the deadline to pay the tax is 30th April 2023.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Does TDS need to be paid monthly?

If the deductor has deducted the TDS in any month, they are liable to file the tax deducted on or prior to the 7th of the next month. In case the TDS is collected in the month of March, the deadline is April 30th. For any TDS collected on the purchase and rent of property, there is a period of 30 days from the end of the month in which the TDS has been collected to file the returns.

How is the TDS on salary collected?

The TDS on your salary is calculated as per the income tax slab that you come under after all applicable exemptions and deductions have been adjusted. Salary is one of the only income sources in which the deductor deducts the total amount of tax liability as tax collected at source (TDS).

 Is it possible to file TDS returns after the due date?

Yes, you can file TDS returns after the due date has passed, but you will have to pay a fine amounting to ₹200 per day for each day that you have not filed the TDS amount under Section 243E. This will continue until the amount has reached the TDS amount that you are liable to pay.
 

Also, you might have to pay a hefty fine under Section 271(H), depending on the department. This fine ranges from ₹10,000 to ₹1 lakh. The penalty under this is an addition to Section 243E.

What are the documents required to file TDS returns?

The documents that you require to file TDS returns include PAN, TAN, TDS certificates, bank account information, etc.

Can I file TDS returns online?

Yes, you can file TDS returns online using the e-filing portal for income tax. The whole process is simple and quick. You just have to ensure that you have all the required documents.
