Plz anyone give me advise how to submit TDS Quarterly Return by this Quarter. This is the first time to our company. It's for Rent TDS.

step -3 :
Once the file has been prepared as per the file format, it should be verified using the File Validation Utility (FVU) provided by NSDL.
* FVU for Annual Returns: e-TDS / e-TCS returns prepared for FY 2004-05 (Forms 24, 26, 27 and 27E) can be validated using this utility.
* FVU for Quarterly Returns: e-TDS / e-TCS returns prepared upto FY 2009-10 and onwards (i.e. Forms 24Q, 26Q, 27Q and 27EQ) can be validated using this utility.
* FVU for Quarterly Returns: e-TDS / e-TCS returns prepared for FY 2010-11 and onwards (i.e. Forms 24Q, 26Q, 27Q and 27EQ) can be validated using this utility.
Once the return has been prepared as per the file format, it can be verified using the File Validation Utility (FVU) provided by NSDL. In the input screen of FVU, there are three fields provided to enter the name (including the path) for Input File, Error/Response File and Upload File. It is mandatory to fill all these fields:
Input File : To specify the name of the input file (including the path) i.e. the e-TDS/e-TCS return prepared as per file format to be validated by the FVU. Error/Response File : To specify the name (including the path) where either an error or response file generated by the FVU on completion of validation will be saved. Error file is a file generated by FVU detailing the format level errors (if any) in the original input file submitted for validation. If the original return submitted to the FVU is a valid return a response file will be generated. This file contains the control total from the return and count of missing/ invalid PANs. These Error/ Response files will be saved at the pre-defined path. Upload File : To specify the name (including the path) of the upload file generated by FVU after validation of the input file. In case of a valid e-TDS/e-TCS return, FVU will generate an Upload file, which will contain a hash value (a value generated by FVU using the characters in the input file) appended to the original e-TDS/e-TCS return.
STEP -4 :
In case file has any errors the FVU will give a report of the errors. Rectify the errors and verify the file again through the FVU.
The upload file generated by the FVU on successful validation is to be furnished to a TIN-FC or directly uploaded through the NSDL web-site.
Annual Returns:
Each e-TDS return saved in a CD/Pen Drive to be submitted along with a signed copy of the control chart (Form 27A).
Each e-TCS return saved in a CD/Pen Drive to be submitted along with a signed copy of the control chart (Form 27B).
Quarterly Returns:
