select TAn based view and fill the relevant period you need.

Further you must have been maintaining some other records other that eTDS return i. e. books of account and menton the party pan and amount from that infomration to generate consolidated TDS return file.

27 July 2025 In your case — where the **assessee wants to file a TDS correction statement** but **does not have party (deductee) details**, and only has **TAN login, password**, and **challan details (from OLTA)** — here's how to proceed effectively:

---

### ✅ **What You Have:**

* TAN registration and TRACES login access
* OLTA challan details (Challan number, date, amount)
* Possibly the original return was filed with **only one deductee**, and you need to add more now

---

### 🔧 **What You Need to Do:**

#### 🔹 Step 1: **Download the Consolidated (Conso) File**

Even with minimal data, you can:

1. Log in to **TRACES** → [https://www.tdscpc.gov.in](https://www.tdscpc.gov.in)
2. Go to: **Statements/Payments** → **Request for Consolidated File**
3. Select:

* Correct **Form type** (24Q, 26Q, etc.)
* Financial Year and Quarter
* Token Number (of original return)
* Provide PAN and TDS amount of the **existing single deductee** (if you have it)

⚠️ If you're missing even that single deductee’s PAN or amount:

* Download **Justification Report** from TRACES (contains basic details and reasons for defaults)
* Sometimes you can get partial PAN info from 26AS of known deductees (if accessible)

---

#### 🔹 Step 2: **Match Challan from OLTA with TRACES**

Now that you have the **challan details from OLTA**, you can:

* Use them to match with the conso file
* Cross-reference in **RPU (Return Preparation Utility)** once you open the file

---

#### 🔹 Step 3: **Prepare Correction Statement**

Once the consolidated file is downloaded:

1. Use **TDS RPU (Return Preparation Utility)** from NSDL
2. Select “**Correction**” and input the correct data
3. Add missing deductee rows under the correct challan
4. Validate with FVU tool and submit via:

* **TIN-FC** (physical)
* Or **upload on TRACES** using DSC (if enabled)

### 🧾 Optional: If Conso File is Not Downloadable

If you can’t get the conso file due to lack of even 1 PAN:

* You’ll need to **reconstruct the original return** with known challans and revise from there
* Contact the **bank's HO or records department** to obtain at least the PANs or ledger of payments for the period

---

### ⚠️ Key Point:

You **cannot file a correction return without a valid Conso File** from TRACES — it’s mandatory.

---

If you can give me:

* TAN
* Financial year & quarter
* Form type
* At least 1 challan (number, date, amount)
