Similar to TDS, TCS returns are to be filed every quarter. In order to do so, the collector needs to create a .txt file containing all the necessary details of transactions that need to be submitted to the government.

To verify if a given PAN belongs to a specified person as per the Income Tax Act, you can use this API. Based on the API's response, you can deduct the relevant TDS when making any payments to that person.

As part of POST to GET, we have released new TDS Return APIs. While the methods to file TDS returns by providing TXT and CSI files or by submitting a zip file containing the FVU and Form 27A existed in previous contracts, we are enhancing the capabilities and streamlining the process with these new endpoints.

We have released a new and updated set of TDS Return Filing APIs. Following are the APIs marked deprecated:
