Form 26Q is a type of TDS return that needs to be filed for all payments other than salaries, where tax has been deducted at source (TDS). This includes payments like contractor bills, rent (non-individuals), professional fees, interest, commission, brokerage, and more made to residents of India.
Under the Income Tax Act, if a business, company, or organization deducts TDS on such payments, it must file Form 26Q quarterly to report the TDS amount deducted and deposited. This helps the Income Tax Department match the deducted amount with the recipient’s PAN and confirm tax compliance.
The form contains important details such as the PAN of the deductor and deductee, the TDS section, amount paid, TDS deducted, date of deduction, and challan details. Filing Form 26Q accurately and on time is mandatory, and any delay can lead to penalties, interest, and disallowance of expenses.
