Kindly guide me that how many years records we have to keep in Income Tax & TDS.

10 January 2025 For Income Tax Returns (ITR), it's generally recommended to keep your records for 8 years. This is because the Income Tax Department can send a notice up to 8 years from the date of filing the ITR. However, if you have income from foreign assets or financial interests in foreign entities, you should keep your records for 16 years.

TDS (Tax Deducted at Source) Records
For TDS records, it's advisable to keep them for 7 years. This is because the Income Tax Department can issue a notice for TDS discrepancies up to 6 years from the financial year in which the TDS was deducted.
