Compliance

Form 26AS is a tax credit statement showing TDS/TCS deducted against your PAN, advance tax and self-assessment tax paid, and certain high-value transactions. The Annual Information Statement (AIS) is broader: it also reports items such as interest, dividends, securities and mutual fund transactions and GST turnover, and shows both the information reported by others and the value you have confirmed.

Check both before filing. Use Form 26AS to confirm that the tax credit you plan to claim is actually reflected, and AIS to make sure the income reported against your PAN is complete. If something is wrong, you can submit feedback on it in AIS on the e-filing portal. Confirm any specifics with your CA.
