Dear Member,

This is to update you that CBDT has extended the due dates for filing TDS Return w.e.f. 01 June 2016 as below. 

Existing Rule [Applicable upto 31 May 2016]

Revised Rule [ Applicable w.e.f. 01 June 2016]

After this amendment, the due dates are same for Government Deductors as well as Non-Government Deductors.

Please note that the above change is effective from 01 June 2016. Therefore it does not have any impact on the filing of TDS return for Financial Year 2015-16 or earlier.

Issue related to issuance of Form-16 (For Salary Income):
However this amendment might create a practical difficulty in case of issuance of Form-16 (Salary Income), because now the due date for filing Q4 Salary TDS Return and due date for issuing Form-16 is same i,.e. 31 May. Therefore if return is filed in the last 3-4 days of extended due dates, then it shall not be possible for the system to process and generate the Form-16 before the due date. But as the amendment is effective from 01 June 2016, so the effect can be seen in next year only.
