TDS Error - "T-FV-4301 Invalid value under field 'section code"

[gvenugopal g]

Hello, I am trying to file TDS Return for the Second quarter of a company using Winman-TDS software and I am getting an error as " T-FV-4301 Invalid value under field 'section/collection code" on payments made on new TDS Section 194R - Benefit or Perquisite from Business/Profession. Kindly suggest me what is the solution for this error.

Thanks & Regards: G VENUGOPAL

This Error occurred due to wrong section entered which is not in the tds return database change this section to corrected one like 194I(a) to 4IA or 4IB, 94J to 4JA or 4JB. Try changing the Section Name as appearing in the dropdown or software parameter.

Even after it does not solve, might be because of difference in utility version you are using in software is not latest one as per RPU.

Even we are facing same error while using SARAL TDS software. I believe portal is not recognizing S 194R. May be this is the reason 26Q due date got extended.

Yes as Sairam ji mentioned, similar issue noticed at multiple locations, because of non tagging of Section 194R, issue has been reported and actions have been taken.

AI Summary

TDS section recognition error blocks filing; update software or map correct section code to proceed.
A recurring TDS filing error occurs when the return utility rejects the section/collection code entered for payments under Section 194R because the software database does not recognize the submitted code. The primary fixes are to select the exact section label from the software dropdown or update the TDS utility to the latest RPU-compatible version so newly tagged provisions are recognized by the portal.
