My Experience with Saral is LIke I FOund It a bit complex and my accountants all ways come back to me with queries on this.

Just see that your software has Automatic Updates from your Service Provider

I found TDSMAN a simple and effective Softare, here is the link for its demo so that after viewing this you will decide:

I completely agree with PMA Nooruddin, TDSMAN has been one of the first to be fully compliant with the newly released File Validation Utility FVU 3.8. They continously update their software according to the latest requirements.

Just try the trial version of the software and evaluate yourself https://www.tdsman.com/Trial-Form.aspx

I HAVE BEEN USING WEBTELS SOFTWARE SINCE SEVERAL YEARS.IT HAS SEVRAL GOOD FEATHERS:

1. YOU CAN FEED DATA RELATING TO ANY QUARTER. IF YOU ARE PAYING RENT EVERY MONTH THEN YOU CAN POST ALL 12 ENTRIES IN BEGINING TO AVOID ANY MISS. WE USUALLY HAVE SIMILAR ENTRIES FOR RENT, PROFESSIONAL CHARGES ETC AND THIS IS A GOOD FEATHER. SOME SOFTWARE DO NOT ALLOW ADVANCE DATE ENTRY.

2, YOU CAN SEE HOW MUCH TDS YOU HAVE TO PAY EVERY MONTH. AND YOU NEED NOT TO ENTER PAYMENT TWICE LIKE SOME SOFTWARE.

3. THE PROBLEM WITH IT IS IT IS NOT 100% RELIABLE AND GIVES BUGS SOME TIMES WHICH FORCE YOU TO REVISE RETURN AND REVISION IS VERY DIFFICULT IN IT.

4. ONLINE VERIFICATION OF CHALLANS ETC SERVICES ARE NOT AVAILABLE.AS SOME OTHER DO.

5. MENUS ARE USER FRIENDLY AND DO NOT GIVE CLUSTERED LOOK.

6. YOU HAVE TO SELECT SECTION UNDER WHICH TDS HAS TO BE DEDUCTED FOR EACH PARTY ONCE AT THE TIME OF CREATING.

WE ARE ALSO SEARCHING A SOFTWARE WHICH IS BETTER. PLEASE ENLIGHTEN ,ME IF ANYBODY HAS GOOD EXPERIENCE.

PLEASE GIVE ANSWER LIKE A PROFESSIONAL AND NOT IN GOOD OR BAD. GIVE PLUS AND MINUS POINTS

NSDL RPU is more than sufficient if you can make of it with little bit knowledge on computers and TDS process.

I Personally like KDK softwares and CompuTDS. They are based on SQL Data base and have a friendly User Interface.

You can also buy the one which is developed by your Income Tax software company. With all the developments and validity check controls by NSDL, you basically need a software to maintain your database. I think go for KDK softwares. Nice support. If you use Computax than go for CompuTDS.

I HAVE BEEN USING COMPUTAX SOFTWARE. IT WORKS FINE ALTHOUG IT DOES WORK LIKE A SOFTWARE BUT APPERS TO BE A EXCEL UTILITY AND WORKS ON INTERNET EXPLORER BUT RESULTS ARE FINE. IF THEY PROVIDE REPETITION OF ENTERY AND ALLOW FUTURE DATE ENTERY AT ONE POINT THEN NO BODY CAN BEAT THEM.

Hi, All the listed softwares are paid and desktop based. https://cleartds.com is the only free and cloud-based software which makes TDS returns easy. The software is very intuitive to use and comes with self-help guides. Give it a shot!!

In my opinion, the best option is the Govt. portal but due to database management tax professionals are recommending Gen TDS software. It is the best software to file unlimited TDS/TCS returns if taxpayers want to save the database for later filing.

According to the official website of the tax information network, this software is an authorized e-filing program. Furthermore, it ranked among the top ten occupied online Tax Deducted at Source unlimited filing programs.

Gen TDS software provides a better and more convenient filing experience. Software such as this simplifies the process of filing TDS returns. A complete set of specifications is included in the software to prepare returns. The platform also allows Indian tax authorities to comply with TRACES rules by e-filing TDS and TCS returns as well as calculating interest, penalty, determining the TDS return, etc.

As the company is not to directly say for purchasing first it is giving a free trial version for complete testing and satisfaction.
