Salaried and non salaried persons:-
Salaried persons are those individuals who are under the
pay roll of any government or corporate office. Generally the tax payable by these persons are deducted at the payment of salary. Non salaried persons are those persons who are businessman or landlord etc. Basically they have to consult a C.A. to pay there tax. HOW THE COMPUTDS WORKS:-
The TDS is paid in four quarters which is itself divided as 1 st
period, 2nd period, 3rd period and 4th period by the system. On the 1st period if we click in the system then we can put the whole amount of TDS as per the date and challan no. and going through the details of a particular employee and recording their TDS amount it will be adjusted on a particular screen of the employee in the system with the option of book entry of the TDS of the particular employee. The working of the software is elaborately discussed below :- On opening of the software a screen will be displayed which will consist of name of the parties, salaried non salaried options. If we choose the salaried option then we should clearly state the name, address and the pan card no.. On putting the TDS amount and all the related information we can exit from the updated screen. And then we have to go to the challan screen. The check can be done if we go through the validation check. If we go through the validation check and an error is recognized then the software will show on which particular statement the adjustment is wrong or whether any information is not available. If all the information are correctly given then the software will allow us to take a print out of the validation period. Basically Form 16(a) is prepared on that basis and it should be sent to the income tax department for its approval so as to show that TDS is prepared for a particular period. On the other hand in case of non salaried we have to select the particular option then the party name and the respected period and then we have to fill the challan screen with the challan no. and the date. For the non salaried individuals there are different groups in which the TDS is paid like rent, advertisement etc. which consist of different sections of the Income Tax Act. The section much be selected in the challan screen. After that we have to put the address, pan no., pin code and the amount of TDS paid against the respective challan. Then we can go through the adjustments against the particular challan till the balance is indicating zero. IMPORTANCE OF THIS SOFTWARE:-
