Understanding TAN/TCS and How to Apply for It

TAN

A Tax Deduction Account Number (TAN) or Tax Collection Account Number (TCS) is a 10-digit code issued by the Income Tax (IT) department. Individuals responsible for collecting tax at source (TCS) or deducting tax at source (TDS) need to have a TAN.

How to Apply for TAN:

You can apply for TAN through two methods: offline and online.

Offline Mode:

In offline mode, you need to fill out Form 49B in duplicate and submit it to any Tax Information Network-Facilitation Centre (TIN-FC). You can find the addresses of TIN-FCs on the Protean (formerly NSDL eGov) TIN website.

Online Mode:

For online application, visit the Protean TIN website and follow these steps:

1. Visit the official NSDL website.
2. Select the “Online Application” or click on the provided link.
3. Fill in all the mandatory fields marked with an asterisk (*) and select the box on the left margin of the field where correction is needed.
4. If any incorrect information is entered, you’ll receive an error message. Correct the errors and resubmit the form.
5. Once the form is error-free, you’ll receive a confirmation message on screen.

If you’re satisfied with the displayed information, confirm it. Make the payment, and an acknowledgement slip will be generated.

Save and print the slip.
Send the receipt along with required documents to Protean eGov Technologies Limited at the provided address: 4th floor, Sapphire Chambers, Baner Road, Baner, Pune – 411 015. By following these steps, you can successfully apply for TAN/TCS either offline or online.
