27 July 2025 If a TDS return is filed **before the quarter ends**, here’s what you need to know:

---

### Is it allowed to file TDS return before quarter end?

* **Technically, TDS returns are filed quarterly** — i.e., after the quarter ends but before the due date.
* Filing the return **before the quarter ends** is **not the standard practice** and the return may get rejected or treated as invalid by the system.

---

### What to do if filed early?

1. **Check the status** of your TDS return on the TDS portal.
2. If rejected, you will need to **file the return again for the correct quarter** after the quarter ends.
3. If accepted (rare), verify that all details are correct and no further action needed.

---

### Key points:

* TDS return due dates are:

* Q1 (Apr-Jun): 31 July
* Q2 (Jul-Sep): 31 Oct
* Q3 (Oct-Dec): 31 Jan
* Q4 (Jan-Mar): 31 May

* Returns should ideally be filed **after the quarter ends** but **before due date**.

---

### Suggestion:

* Always file TDS returns **after the quarter ends**.
* If you mistakenly filed early, **re-verify the return status** and be ready to submit a corrected return if required.
