28 July 2025 To **revise a TDS return** due to mismatch between **Form 16 Part A and Part B** (e.g. "Amount Paid or Credited"), here is a clear step-by-step guide — especially since you’re using **TaxPro** software and this is your first time:

---

### ✅ **Background**

* **Form 16 Part A** is auto-generated from the TDS return (Form 24Q) filed and processed via TRACES.
* **Part B** is generated manually or via payroll software and may have inconsistencies if the return wasn't filed correctly.
* To correct **Part A**, you **must revise the TDS return** (Form 24Q) since that data flows into TRACES → Form 16.

---

### 🔁 **Why You Should Revise**

Even if no demand is raised:

* You’re **legally required** to issue accurate Form 16.
* Discrepancies between Form 16 Parts A and B will cause confusion or tax filing errors for employees.

---

### 🛠️ **Steps to Revise TDS Return Using TaxPro (or similar)**

#### 🔹 Step 1: **Obtain the Conso File**

* Log in to **TRACES** portal ([https://www.tdscpc.gov.in/](https://www.tdscpc.gov.in/)).
* Go to: *Statement Status* → *Request for Conso File* for the relevant quarter.
* Download the **Consolidated (Conso) file** when it's ready.

> 🔸 You need: **TAN, Token number** of the original return, and other challan info.

#### 🔹 Step 2: **Open TaxPro and Create a Correction Statement**

* In TaxPro, select **"Correction Return"**, *not* Original.
* Import the **Conso file** downloaded from TRACES.
* Update the required fields, e.g., **Amount Paid or Credited**, Date of Payment, etc.
* Validate the deductee entries carefully.

#### 🔹 Step 3: **Validate**

* Use **FVU (File Validation Utility)** for validation.

* Download latest FVU utility from [NSDL site](https://www.tin-nsdl.com/).
* Input `.txt` file generated by TaxPro into the FVU tool.
* If all data is correct, it will generate a `.fvu` file for upload.

#### 🔹 Step 4: **Upload the Revised Return**

* Upload `.fvu` file to:

* **TIN-FC center** physically (with a pen drive/CD), or
* **NSDL e-Gov portal** via [https://www.tin-nsdl.com](https://www.tin-nsdl.com) if you're registered.

#### 🔹 Step 5: **Download Revised Form 16**

* After the revised return is processed (check statement status on TRACES),
* Download the **updated Form 16 Part A** from TRACES for each employee.
* Generate **Form 16 Part B** from your payroll/Excel and merge them if needed.
