Need TAN Application? Its One Click away.

In India, it is mandatory for businesses to have a Tax Deduction Account Number (TAN). TAN, or Tax Deduction and Collection Account Number, is a unique 10-digit alphanumeric identifier issued by the Income Tax Department. As per Section 203A of the Income Tax Act 1961, it is compulsory for all TDS and TCS deductors to quote their TAN number in all their statements and communications with the IT department. Failure to do so attracts a penalty, and banks will not accept TDS returns and payments if they don't have the TAN number.

    Legal Compliance

    Ensures compliance with Indian tax laws, especially for employers or entities making TDS/TCS payments.

    Tracking Tax Payments

    TAN enables the government to track the tax deducted at source and ensure correct tax remittance.

    Penalties for Non-Compliance

    Having a TAN ensures that an individual or entity avoids penalties or issues related to incorrect or delayed tax deductions.

    Transparency

    PAN for TDS and TCS purposes can be linked with the tax payment process, ensuring transparency in tax collection.

    Easy compliance

    Having a TAN code is a mandatory requirement. It gives you the legal authority to deduct TDS and TCS while complying with the latest guidelines.

    Disadvantages of TAN Application

    Time-Consuming Process

    While the process is relatively simple, obtaining a TAN can still take time due to the need for submitting documents and undergoing verification.

    Not Required for Individuals

    TAN is only needed by businesses, professionals, or organizations, not individuals unless they are required to deduct or collect tax.

    Complexity in Compliance

    Once TAN is obtained, it requires regular compliance in the form of TDS/TCS filings and maintenance of records.

    Penalty for Non-Registration

    If you fail to obtain TAN when required, you can be penalized, and the process of penalty payment can add more complexity.
