We must explain to you how all seds this mistakens idea denouncing pleasures and praising account.
Starting a business or making payments where you need to deduct TDS? First, you need a TAN (Tax Dedication and Collection Account Number). TAN is a special 10-digit alphanumeric number issued by the Income Tax Department of India, and it's compulsory for anyone responsible for deducting or collecting TDS on various payments, such as salary, rent, professional fees, contractor payments, and more.
If you're running a business, managing a startup, an NGO, or even a trust, or planning to apply for Startup India Recognition, you will need a TAN to stay legally compliant. It doesn't matter whether your business is big or small — the moment you're liable to deduct TDS, you must apply for TAN. Without it, you cannot deposit TDS to the government, file TDS returns, or issue Form 16 or other TDS certificates.
Many people get confused between PAN and TAN — while PAN is used for general income tax tracking, TAN is only used for TDS/TCS compliance. If you deduct TDS without TAN, it can lead to penalties of up to ₹10,000 or other legal troubles. That’s why it’s better to get it done right the first time — and that’s where CallmyCA comes in.
