Quick Summary
This discussion addresses a common issue where the TDS amount shown in Form 26AS is larger than the amounts recorded in company books. Participants suggest investigating each party responsible for the TDS entries to understand the discrepancies. Genuine reasons, such as the timing of payments versus invoice booking, can cause these differences, with TDS often being reflected in the next financial year if payments are made after the year-end. Reconciling TDS entries invoice by invoice with 26AS is recommended to pinpoint the exact causes.

Ask each party corresponding to entries to enquire more details and get it rectified
Some times there can be genuine reasons for this difference
Pls post exact ledger extracts.
cr. side represent liability
dr. is payment.
What is the balance?
Practically , if March invoice payment is made in April or May or as per terms .
Few companies consider the AY based on payment.

Suppose payment is made on 20th April then Tds will be credited in next year .Short fall in current year & excess in upcoming year .


You may do invoice wise Tds reconciliation with 26AS to find the exact difference.

Some times payment for invoice may take months .You might have booked it in previous year but in 26AS it comes for current year
