Union Budget 2024-25 (Full) + FINANCE (No.2) Bill, 2024
Section 200 of the Act lists the duty of the person deducting tax under the provisions of Chapter XVII-B. Sub-section (3) of this section requires that a deductor after paying the tax deducted to the credit of the Central Government, shall prepare statements detailing the TDS deducted and furnish it within the prescribed time to the prescribed authority. The proviso to section 200 states that a person may also deliver to the prescribed authority a correction statement for rectification of any mistake or to add, delete or update the information furnished in the statement delivered under this sub-section in such form and verified in such manner as may be specified by the authority.
2. Section 206C of the Act provides for the collection of tax at source (TCS) on business of trading in alcoholic liquor, forest produce, scrap etc. Proviso to sub-section (3) of section 206C of the Act requires that a person collecting tax after paying the tax collected to the credit of the Central Government, furnish statements detailing the TCS collected within the prescribed time. Sub-section (3B) of the said section requires that the person collecting tax may also deliver to the prescribed authority, a correction statement for rectification of any mistake or to add, delete or update the information furnished in the statement delivered under the proviso to subsection (3) in such form and verified in such manner, as may be specified by the authority.
3. While there is a time limit for furnishing statements detailing the TDS/TCS, however, there is no time limit for furnishing correction statements. Hence such statements may be revised multiple times indefinitely and thus these provisions may be misused causing difficulty to deductees / collectees. Accordingly, in order to put certainty and finality on the filing process of TDS and TCS statements, it is proposed to amend section 200 and sub-section (3B) of section 206C to provide that no correction statement shall be delivered after the expiry of six years from the end of the financial year in which the statement referred to in sub-section (3) of section 200 and statement referred to in the proviso to sub-section (3) of section 206C are respectively delivered.
4. The amendments will take effect from the 1st day of April, 2025.
[Clauses 67 & 70]

Imposes a six year cut off for delivering correction statements for TDS and TCS: no correction statement may be delivered after six years from the end of the financial year in which the original statement was delivered, thereby providing finality to TDS/TCS filings and preventing indefinite post filing revisions. of Press 'Enter' after typing page number.
