How to fill the challan Online

1. Use Challan type 281 for deposit of TDS/TCS

2. Use separate challan to deposit Tax Deducted under each section.

3. Use separate challans to deposit tax deducted for different types of deductees, i.e. corporate or non corporate

4. The Correct 10 digit TAN of the deductor should be quoted in the challan otherwise the deductor would not get the credit for tax paid. Use a rubber stamp of TAN to avoid mistakes.
Correct TAN details can be verified on Income tax Department web site www.incometaxindia.gov.in

5. The Assessment year for which the payment is being made should be correctly quoted. For example if the tax is deducted in the month of May’10 and paid in June’10 then the financial year would be 2010-11 but the assessment year would be 2011-12 which is to be quoted in the challan.
