As we all know, TDS is deducted to deposit a certain amount of your salary to the government in the form of tax. Apart from depositing tax, you are required to file a TDS Return as well. TDS Return needs to be filed with NSDL or the ITD portal by the deductor at regular intervals. But, what if you notice a mistake or missed any information in your already submitted return form? To correct your existing return, you can file a Revised TDS Return.

Points to Ponder While Filing a Revised TDS Return
- Online changes can be done only in the PAN and challan, add/modify /delete Deductee and add/modify challan. For any other revision in the return, one needs to make changes through TIN-FC.
- Only those TDS returns can be revised, the statements for which are issued after the fiscal year 2007-08.
- For the online rectification in the TDS return, a taxpayer must be registered on the online portal, i.e. TRACES.
- Only those altered statements are considered valid that have been approved or accepted by the TIN central system.
- The changes made in the TDS return statement should be given many times to reflect the changes in the regular TDS report. However, the TIN Central system accepts a regular statement only once.
- User must ensure that the updated changes or corrections are in harmony with the acceptable alterations in the TDS report.
- The record, disallowed earlier, should be mentioned clearly by the user.
Partly Accepted Statements
When the status of the rectified statements is displayed as “Partially Accepted, the user must do the following:
- Ensure that the rectifications w.r.t the accepted records in the TDS report are duly updated.
- Ensure that the correct PAN is updated in his statement because incorrect PAN details lead to rejection of remuneration.

thereafter on this latest conso file, you can add deductees, correction in the pan no. of the deductees, delete the deductees. here only one confusion while submitting an application for making an addition of 2 challans, wrongly I have submitted the application for 3 challans. the third challans which was wrongly included here that challan I want to use in another quarter. then how this third challan shall be utilized in the different quarter. please guide this point.
You don’t have to add any deductee records in the 3rd challan. Leave it as it is and proceed to file correction for rest of the challans. On traces website, the 3rd challan will remain unconsumed and you can utilize it in the different quarter.

Dear Sir
We found few errors in IVth qtr TDS return filed by us on due date and we went again given request and downloaded the conso file and filed revised tds return subsequently. Errors got rectified with concerned TDS entries after checking Form 16/16A. But we found that few more corrections to be done again. So, we gave request and downloaded the conso file. There is a surprise, Whatever we have corrected in the 1st revised return is still not updated. We waited for few weeks and checked again, Same story. Now we are not sure how to get the conso file updated to the last filed revised return since we need to still file a revised return again for something else.
Please advice.
Please contact to TRACES for this issue. They will only let you know.
