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 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 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.

A partnership firm holds one PAN at the firm level.

Yes — if the proprietor is a person responsible for deducting TDS under any provision other than Sections 194-IA, 194-IB or 194M (e.g., a proprietor paying salary above the Section 192 threshold, or contract payments under Section 194C beyond the threshold), Section 203A requires him to apply for TAN even though he holds a PAN.
There is no statutory ceiling. CBDT guidance and Protean (NSDL) practice permit one TAN per branch or division where deductions are administered locally; one consolidated TAN is also acceptable where deductions are centralised.

“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.”
