TDS for the quarter, checked against the books.
Xegality reads the client's day book for the quarter, places each payment under its TDS section and finds what was not deducted, deducted short or deposited late, then builds the worksheet and the RPU input for the statement.
| Payee | Nature | Finding |
|---|---|---|
| Nova Consultants | Professional fees | Not deducted |
| Bharat Transport | Contract work | Short |
| Skyline Realty | Rent | OK |
| Challan 00412 | Deposit | Late |
What you can do with TDS / TCS.
The right section
From your ledger mapping, then keyword rules, then the deductee master. AI suggests a section only for ledgers nothing else places.
Thresholds over the year
Single, aggregate and monthly limits per payee and section, with earlier payments brought in once an aggregate is crossed.
Short, late and missing
Not deducted, short or excess deducted, no PAN, late deduction and late deposit, each with its interest worked out.
Challans and statements
Import challans from OLTAS, match them within each section and compare the filed statement with the books, with the late filing fee.
TRACES reports read
Lines of a TRACES justification report are read and each default is given its correction route.
Payroll proofs and Form 16
Employees' proofs are read and checked, salary TDS is projected for the months left and the Form 16 Part B rows are ready.
From the books to the RPU's input.
The quarter's worksheet lists sections, deductee rows with remark codes and challans with their unused balance. The filing pack adds a workbook in the RPU's column order with the Form 27A control totals and the checks the FVU would fail, so you generate the .fvu in Protean's utility from a clean start.

How TDS / TCS works.
- 1.
Bring the quarter's books
The Tally day book or ledgers, the challans and any TRACES report for the quarter.
- 2.
Run the check
Xegality places sections, applies thresholds and rates from the rule pack and lists every default with its interest.
- 3.
Prepare the statement
Review the worksheet, download the RPU input and generate the .fvu in Protean's utility. You file the statement.
Xegality prepares and checks the work, and a member of your practice reviews and approves it before anything reaches a client. Returns and forms are filed by you on the government portals: Xegality is not a GSP or ERI and never asks for your clients' portal passwords.
