Yes. Section 203A(1) read with the proviso authorises the Assessing Officer to allot a TAN suo motu where it comes to his notice that a person liable to deduct/collect tax has not applied. The AO issues a TAN allotment letter in the name of the deductor and intimates Protean for system update. Such suo motu allotment does not waive the Section 272BB penalty — penalty remains leviable for the failure to apply, subject to Section 273B reasonable-cause defence.

Prescribed application for allotment of a new TAN by a person required to deduct TDS or collect TCS. Filed online or at a TIN-Facilitation Centre with the applicable fee; a 10-character alphanumeric TAN is allotted on approval.
Used to correct or update details already recorded against an existing TAN (name, address, contact) or to surrender a duplicate TAN allotted in error.
Challan used to deposit tax deducted or collected to the Government; the deductor's TAN is a mandatory field and drives credit to the deductee.
Quarterly statements of TDS: 24Q for salaries, 26Q for other resident payments, 27Q for payments to non-residents. Filed against the deductor's TAN and reconciled to challans and PAN-wise deductee entries.
Quarterly statement of tax collected at source, filed by collectors under Section 206C against their TAN, feeding the collectee's Form 26AS.
TDS certificates issued to deductees: Form 16 for salary and Form 16A for non-salary payments. Generated from TRACES only against a valid TAN and correctly filed statement.
Every claim on this page can be traced back to a section or rule below.
Section 203A makes it mandatory for every person who deducts tax at source (TDS) or collects tax at source (TCS) to apply for and obtain a Tax Deduction and Collection Account Number (TAN). The section requires TAN to be quoted in every TDS/TCS challan, in every TDS/TCS return, in every TDS/TCS certificate, and in other prescribed documents. It is the foundational provision that brings a deductor into the TDS administration framework.
View sourceSection 272BB imposes a penalty of Rs 10,000 for failure to apply for a TAN when required, and a further Rs 10,000 for failure to quote the TAN, or for quoting a false/incorrect TAN, in challans, returns, certificates or other prescribed documents. The penalty is leviable by the Assessing Officer after giving the person an opportunity of being heard; a reasonable-cause defence is available under Section 273B.
View sourceRule 114A prescribes that the application for allotment of a TAN under Section 203A must be made in Form 49B. It sets out how a deductor/collector applies, the particulars to be furnished, and directs the application to the authority notified for the purpose (Protean/NSDL e-Gov acting for the Income-tax Department). Applications may be made online or through TIN-Facilitation Centres.
View sourceSection 200 requires a deductor to pay the tax deducted to the credit of the Central Government and to deliver quarterly TDS statements. Rule 31A specifies the statements (Form 24Q for salary, 26Q for other resident payments, 27Q for payments to non-residents) and the due dates. Every challan and statement must quote the deductor's TAN, without which credit cannot flow to the deductee's Form 26AS/AIS.
View sourceA deductor who fails to deduct or, after deducting, fails to deposit TDS is treated as an assessee-in-default under Section 201(1) and is liable to interest under Section 201(1A) at 1% per month for non-deduction and 1.5% per month for non-deposit. Practical compliance with Section 201 is only possible once a TAN is in place, since deposit and reporting run entirely through the TAN.
View sourceSection 234E levies a fee of Rs 200 for every day of delay in filing a TDS/TCS statement, capped at the amount of tax deductible/collectible. The fee is mandatory and must be paid before the statement is filed. It presupposes a functioning TAN because statements are filed against the deductor's TAN; a wrong or missing TAN causes rejection and consequential 234E exposure.
View sourceKolathur (PIN 600099) falls under the Perambur Division of the Chennai North, the jurisdiction that handles statutory matters for businesses at this PIN. Businesses registered in Kolathur share the Chennai North jurisdiction, and their statutory matters route through the same Perambur Division each time. Kolathur is a residential locality in north Chennai with a steadily growing retail and small-trade base. GST clients are typically small retail outlets, restaurants, coaching centres and neighbourhood services. For TAN Registration at PIN 600099, understanding the Perambur Division's documentation norms removes most of the friction from the process.
The residential and small business mix of Kolathur shapes what lands in our workpapers — a blend of residential activity and the commercial pulse around Kolathur Lake. Freight and foot traffic from the Kolathur Bus Stop hub pull steady daily commerce through Kolathur, so there is rarely a quiet filing month in this residential and small business pocket. Commercial activity in Kolathur runs medium, so TAN volumes scale through peak months and we staff the Kolathur desk accordingly. Kolathur sustains a medium flow of commerce for a residential and small business locality, and that flow is the raw material for the TAN files we close here.
We have closed enough TAN Registration files for education firms near Kolathur to know where the department usually probes. For a education business in Kolathur, the TAN Registration scope is rarely generic; we tailor the checklist to how that sector actually transacts. TAN Registration for education businesses in Kolathur hinges on getting the sector's recurring entries right the first time. education units around Kolathur share recurring TAN patterns — input-credit timing, vendor reconciliation, and sector-specific documentation.
From the first TAN Registration cycle, a Kolathur engagement is set up to be audit-ready rather than reconstructed under pressure later. Working papers for Kolathur TAN Registration engagements stay archived and retrievable, which makes any later notice or query straightforward to answer. Turnaround for Kolathur TAN Registration is deterministic — fixed fee, a scoped timeline, and a same-business-day acknowledgement once filed. The Kolathur TAN Registration workflow is documented end-to-end: WhatsApp document intake, a working file, qualified review, and a filed acknowledgement back to you.
We treat Kolathur and Madhavaram as one catchment for TAN Registration, which keeps documentation and turnaround consistent. Businesses straddling Kolathur and Madhavaram get a single TAN point of contact rather than two. From the same Kolathur team we also serve Madhavaram and other nearby localities without re-onboarding clients. Group companies spread across Kolathur and Madhavaram consolidate their TAN under one engagement with us.
Patterns we track for Kolathur include residential documentation gaps, timing mismatches, and the questions the Perambur Division tends to raise. Common patterns in the Perambur Division give Kolathur businesses an early-warning map we use to pre-empt TAN issues. Because we work repeatedly across Kolathur, we can benchmark a new client's TAN Registration position against the locality norm. Over several cycles in Kolathur, the recurring TAN Registration issues cluster around a predictable short list we screen for early.
A startup setting up near Kolathur Lake in Kolathur gets a TAN foundation built for the Perambur Division from day one. First-time TAN Registration for a Kolathur business is where getting the basics right saves years of cleanup later. Shifting principal place of business to Kolathur means updating jurisdiction to the Chennai North, and we manage the paperwork end-to-end. We onboard new Kolathur entities onto a TAN Registration cadence that is audit-ready from the very first cycle.
Form 49B application under Section 203A for Kolathur deductors — drafted with the correct deductor category (Company/Firm/Individual/HUF/Trust/Government), authorised signatory details, registered office and DSC/Aadhaar verification — filed through Protean (formerly NSDL) and tracked till the TAN allotment letter.
A dedicated TAN consultant in Kolathur handles every stage — eligibility check under Section 203A, deductor-category mapping, supporting documents preparation, online Form 49B submission, acknowledgement despatch where DSC is not used, and 7-15 working day allotment tracking with TRACES registration.

Eli Lilly and Hindustan Steel principles.
Yes. A non-resident or foreign company that has a place of business in India and is responsible for deducting TDS under Section 195 (payments to non-residents) must obtain TAN under Section 203A. Where the foreign deductor has no permanent presence, the resident payer (Indian remitter) deducts and deposits the TDS under his own TAN —...
TAN (Tax Deduction and Collection Account Number) is a 10-character alpha-numeric identifier mandated by Section 203A of the Income-tax Act 1961 for every person who is required to deduct tax at source under Chapter XVII-B or collect tax at source under Section 206C. Without a TAN, no TDS or TCS challan can be deposited and...

The Income Tax Department processes the application and...
A TAN has 10 characters in the format AAAA99999A — first four alphabets (positions 1-3 indicate the city of issue, position 4 is the first alphabet of the deductor's name), next five numerics are a unique system-generated number, and the last character is an alphabetic check digit. Example: CHEM12345F means Chennai-issued TAN to a deductor...
PAN (Section 139A) is the universal taxpayer identification number — used by every person earning income, filing returns and entering high-value transactions. TAN (Section 203A) is exclusively for deductors and collectors — used to deposit TDS/TCS challans, quote on Form 16/16A and file TDS returns. A single entity ordinarily holds one PAN and one TAN;...
Section 272BB(1) levies a penalty of ₹10,000 on a person who fails to apply for allotment of TAN as required by Section 203A, or fails to quote or quotes incorrect TAN on any challan, certificate, statement or other document.

“Started a manufacturing unit at Ambattur with 18 employees. FilingPro filed Form 49B, got our TAN in 9 working days, and set up the entire Section 192 salary TDS workflow including TRACES registration and the first Form 24Q. Form 16 generation is now a clean monthly process.”
“We had two duplicate TANs allotted years ago by mistake — one was being used, the other was attracting non-filing notices. FilingPro coordinated the surrender with the AO (TDS), filed the pending NIL statements, and closed the duplicate TAN cleanly. Notices stopped immediately.”
“Our charitable trust started paying contract fees crossing the Section 194C threshold. FilingPro explained that 12A registration does not exempt TDS, filed Form 49B in the trust's name with the Trust Deed and 12AB certificate, and got the TAN within 12 days. Compliance now fully on track.”
“Pvt Ltd company expanding to two new branches at Coimbatore and Madurai. FilingPro filed branch-wise Form 49B for each location, got three TANs within two weeks, and synchronised the TRACES setup. Branch-level deduction reporting is clean and consolidated at head office.”
“Received a Section 272BB notice for ₹10,000 — we had quoted PAN on three challans by mistake before getting the TAN. FilingPro drafted the Section 273B reasonable-cause reply citing Hindustan Steel v. State of Orissa and got the penalty fully waived. The bona fide error defence held up.”
“Closed my proprietorship and converted to a private limited company. FilingPro surrendered the old proprietorship TAN, filed Form 49B for the new company, and managed the transition Form 24Q for the conversion quarter under both TANs. Form 16 to employees was clean across the transition. Worth every rupee.”
