NGO TDS Return Filing with NGOedge

Follow the simple three steps process to start your journey with us

TDS Return Filing - Introduction

Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) filing is a statutory requirement for NGOs that make payments liable for TDS under the Income Tax Act, such as salaries, professional fees, contract payments, rent, etc. Timely and accurate TDS filing not only avoids penalties but also enhances the organization’s compliance credibility.

At NGOedge, we specialize in helping NGOs meet their quarterly TDS filing obligations, manage deductions, generate Form 16/16A, and ensure full compliance with applicable provisions — so that you can focus on creating impact, while we manage your tax obligations.


Why TDS Filing is Essential for NGOs

Statutory Requirement
Any NGO deducting TDS must file quarterly TDS returns, irrespective of their non-profit status.

Avoid Heavy Penalties
Late or incorrect filing can attract penalties under Sections 234E and 271H of the Income Tax Act.

Ensures Transparency and Good Governance
Proper TDS compliance strengthens donor and stakeholder trust.

Mandatory for Salary and Contractor Payments
NGOs disbursing salaries or making payments to consultants, contractors, or vendors must deduct and file TDS.
