Tax Deduction and Collection Account Number Registration

TAN Card

Tax Deduction and Collection Account Number ,commonly known as TAN ,is a 10-digit alphanumeric identification number. This unique number is necessary for individuals and entities who have the responsibility of deducting or collecting taxes. The Income Tax Department assigns this alphanumeric number in accordance with Section 203A of the Income Tax Act of 1961. Moreover ,it is mandatory to mention the TAN on all TDS (Tax Deducted at Source) returns.
