15CA/15CB Bulk Filing Automation Tool – Need Suggestions

You are right—most 15CA/15CB automation tools are either expensive or require generating XMLs one by one. Bulk generation is possible, but only a few reliable utilities support true Excel → XML batch conversion.

If you want low cost + bulk generation:

✔ Saral 15CA/15CB
✔ TDSMAN

If you want workflow + automation + speed:

✔ ClearTax

If you want high-volume CA-firm-grade tool:

✔ Gen XML Utility

If I were you (and assuming you handle this occasionally but in volume), I’d:

1. Download the XLTOOL utility, and run a small pilot test — prepare say 10–20 dummy records in Excel, generate XML, upload via bulk-upload on the portal to see if they pass validation.

2. If pilot works fine — convert full batch and continue with that tool.

3. Maintain a master Excel template (with dropdowns, validations) to minimize manual errors each time you generate bulk submissions.

4. Keep an archive of generated XML + Excel data for audit / future reference.

Hi
Just to add for everyone’s benefit: we already use a software ourselves that does exactly what’s being asked — bulk generation of XML for Form 15CA / Form 15CB from an Excel sheet, for multiple transactions at once. The way the tool works, it:
Link to the tool: https://xltool.in/15ca-15cb/

• Lets you fill in all required details in Excel (payer, remittee, amount, nature of remittance, etc.), and then converts them automatically into multiple XML files (one per transaction) — so there’s no need to manually create XML per transaction. xltool.in

• Is compatible with all required parts of 15CA (Parts A, B, C, D) and 15CB — effectively covering all usual use-cases. 

• Helps avoid manual errors that often happen with hand-coded XML (wrong tags, missing fields, bad formatting), which reduces chances of rejection when uploading to portal. xltool.in
