The revised compliance framework provides additional time for filing, as TCS returns are now due on the last day of the month following the relevant quarter. Quarterly TCS Return Due Dates (Form 143) Quarter Period Due DateQ1 1 Apr 2026 \u2013 30 Jun 2026 31 Jul 2026 Q2 1 Jul 2026 \u2013 30 Sep 2026 31 Oct 2026 Q3 1 Oct 2026 \u2013 31 Dec 2026 31 Jan 2027 Q4 1 Jan 2027 \u2013 31 Mar 2027 31 May 2027 TCS Deposit Due Date (Unchanged) For non-government collectors, TCS collected during a month must be deposited on or before the 7th day of the immediately succeeding month. Example: TCS collected in August 2026 must be deposited by 7 September 2026. For government collectors, remittance continues as per applicable government accounting procedures. Consequences of Delay in Filing Form 143 Late filing fee: \u20b9200 per day of delay. Maximum late fee: Cannot exceed the amount of TCS collectible for that quarter. Interest liability: Applicable where collected TCS is not deposited within the prescribed time. Additional penalties: May be imposed for continued non-compliance. Key Benefits of the New System \u2705 Introduction of Form 143 as the new quarterly TCS statement. \u2705 Extended filing timelines for easier compliance. \u2705 Better reporting and faster reconciliation. \u2705 Additional time for correction and compliance planning. Key Takeaway For Tax Year 2026-27, TCS compliance has been streamlined through Form 143 and revised quarterly filing deadlines. While the return filing dates have been extended, the monthly deposit deadline of the 7th day remains unchanged, making timely deposit and quarterly reporting equally important to avoid late fees, interest, and penalties.\" width=\"1195\" height=\"1254\"
