Hello,

Am wondering how much to charge clients for TDS returns? I know it depends on how many entries, status of assesssee, paying capacity etc. but still an idea as to what other practising members of CaClubIndia charge would be great to know. FYI, the institute prescribes a minimum of 1500 per quarterly return upto 5 entries and 3750 thereafter.

Answers in terms of figures would be welcome rather than diplomatic ones..

I do not know how many could charge and collect Rs.1500/-. When I charge 1000 up to 50 / 100 entries the clients murmur for charging so much say iif I increase any more their 'internal auditor s' will object.

Hence I am charging this + offering additonal service of providing Form 16A + filing corr. return if it is minor one.

This is the market scenario in Hyderabad (andhra pradesh)

DEAR YASHSR,

I AM FROM AHMEDABAD,GUJARAT. CHARGING FEES IS DEPENDS UPON THE FACTORS AS ALRADY MENTIONED BY YOU.BUT WE CHARGE NORMALLY RS. 500/- TO 1000/- PER QUATER DEPENDING UPON THE ENTRIES & FILING FEES AT THE NSDL ARE RECOVERED AS OUT OF POCKET EXPENSES WHICH IS SLIGHTLY HIGHER THAN ACTUAL. WHEN THE NUMBER OF ENTRIES INCREASES, WE INCREASE THE CHARGE & WE ALSO MAINTAIN A RECORD FOR THE NUMBER OF ENTRIES TO SHOW THE CLIENTS THAT WE HAVE INCEASED THE FEES ON ACCOUNT OF INCREASE OF NUMBER OF ENTRIES.

THANKS
