    Form 16 issuance

    Form 16 is the TDS certificate issued by the employer to its employees which contains the details of Income (as Salary) received from the employer by the employee and tax deducted thereon after availing the deductions available for that financial year. It is a very crucial document that eases out the process of filing Income tax return of oneself by its employees. It also minimises the chances of errors occurring in Income tax return filed henceforth.

    Form 16 must be issued on or before 15th June of the upcoming year.

    Form 16 consists of 2 parts:

    Part A: An employer can easily download Part A of Form 16 from the TRACES portal by login in to https://www.tdscpc.gov.in .

    • Detailed breakup of salary
