4. The assessee needs to create a password, giving details of the Authorized Person (like designation, mobile no., email id and other basic information of the Organization (like address, landline no, fax no. etc. Fill in the required details and submit the same after typing in the CAPTCHA image.

5. Now log into the ‘EFILING’ portal of the Income Tax Department (using PAN, password and date of incorporation/date of birth of the assessee) and approve the TAN registration as done in Step no. 3 above by going to the ‘For Your Action’ tab at the top-right of the window.

6. After approval, a link will be sent to the e-mail id as given in step no. 3, and a PIN will be sent to the mobile no. given in step no. 3.

7. Click on the link sent on e-mail id and provide the PIN as received on the mobile no. and submit. This completes the registration process.

Mukesh I hope you are using the correct acknowledgement number. The RRR number is the acknowledgement number to be used. Please see my replies to earlier comments.


12 May 2016 mukesh singh

After Successfully filing Tds Return then Why that acknowledgement no is not supporting in our software for downloading Form 16A


11 May 2016 CA. Ankit Chandrakar

Tabrez Khan, online filing IS NOT MANDATORY. You can still file the return by sending Form 27A to facilitation centre.


11 May 2016 CA. Ankit Chandrakar

Shiva Raman, you can download the DSC management Utility from the Efiling portal of the Income Tax Department.


11 May 2016 CA. Ankit Chandrakar

CA. Gangadhar, go to the "View Filed Return" tab in the "TDS" tab and give the required details. You will get the page displaying a token no. Click on token no. and you will see RRR number being displayed. That RRR number is the acknowledgement number to be used for downloading Forms 16/16A.


11 May 2016 CA. Ankit Chandrakar

Dheeraj, first TDS return cannot be filed using this procedure. You have to file it with the TIN Facilitation Centre only. And, this procedure of ONLINE filing IS OPTIONAL AND NOT MANDATORY. You can still use the same old procedure to file TDS returns


11 May 2016 CA. Ankit Chandrakar

Yes Chandu, that will be a valid TDS return.


11 May 2016 CA.Gangadhar

11 May 2016 DHEERAJ AGARWAL

How can, now first TDS return could be filed after 01/05/2016, as the facility to file TDS return on NSDL has been dispensed with, and in order to file TDS on e-filing data of previous return is must for registration of TAN, kindly guide.


11 May 2016 chandu
