TDS returns are filed quarterly. The usual due dates are 31 July for April–June, 31 October for July–September, 31 January for October–December and 31 May for January–March.
For a delay in filing, a late fee of ₹200 per day applies until the return is filed, limited to the total TDS amount deductible for that return. Separately, interest applies on late deduction or late deposit of TDS, and a penalty can apply if a return is not filed within the time allowed after notice.
Due dates can be extended by the department from time to time, so check the Income Tax portal for the current notified date.
