TDS deducted in a month must generally be deposited by the 7th of the next month. For tax deducted in March, the deposit is due by 30 April. Government deductors have different timelines.
Quarterly TDS returns (Form 24Q for salary, 26Q for other resident payments) are due by 31 July for April–June, 31 October for July–September, 31 January for October–December, and 31 May for January–March.
Late deposit attracts interest, and late filing attracts a fee under section 234E, so it is worth setting reminders. Confirm the current dates on the Income Tax portal, since extensions are sometimes notified.
