This chapter provides an overview of year end processing and discusses how to:
Define year end reports.
Generate year end reports.
Certain legislation requires the annual processing and reporting of relevant payroll data. Global Payroll for India enables you to define the year end report parameters and generate the following reporting forms:
Form 3A.
Form 5.
Form 6.
Form 7.
Form 12BA.
Form 16.
Form 24.
Form 24Q e-filing.
Year end processing with Global Payroll for India requires that you:
Define the data values of the reporting form.
Run the report.
Note. Form 24 and Form 16 are year end reports that are produced by a unique combination of PAN (permanent account number) and TAN (tax deduction account number) numbers. For a single pay entity, several combinations of PAN/TAN might exist, each being generated separately.
Per the provisions of the Income Tax Act, 1961, specific entities making payments to deductees for salaries and certain services are required to deduct or collect taxes on these payments at the source (TDS – Tax Deducted at Source / TCS – Tax Collected at Source). The taxes can be deposited at any designated branch of an authorized bank.
In an effort to automate the collection and processing of TDS/TCS tax returns and to provide guidance about who must file electronically, the Income Tax Department has issued notifications Electronic Filing of Returns of Tax Deducted at Source Scheme, 2003 and Electronic Filing of Returns of Tax Collected at Source Scheme, 2005. According to these provisions:
Beginning June 1, 2003, corporate deductors must file TDS forms electronically, and beginning fiscal year 2004–2005, TCS forms must be filed electronically.
Starting fiscal year 2004–2005 and thereafter, government deductors must file all their returns electronically (e-TDS/e-TCS).
Deductors, other than corporate or government, can file either electronic or physical returns.
The National Securities Depository Ltd. (NSDL) is authorized to act as intermediary and receive the e-TDS/e-TCS returns on behalf of the Income Tax Department through TIN-Facilitation Centers established by the NSDL or directly uploaded to the NSDL through their website.
