  1. When one incurs TCS for money transferred abroad say for education. 
    Can the TCS so deducted be adjusted against the advance tax for the next quarter, once the TCS certificate is obtained or it shows in 26AS or AIS as TCS remitted to the tax department
  2. If not can it be adjusted against tax dues when filing returns or by March end for the tax year in question. 
  3. Is it the same for all forms of TCS deducted

Yes, it is same for all type of TCS or even TDS. While it is not adjusted on querterly basis, but over full tax liability.

TCS (Tax Collected at Source) deducted on money transferred abroad for education can be adjusted against advance tax or tax dues, but there are specific rules and timelines to follow:

1.Adjustment against advance tax_: You can adjust TCS against advance tax for the next quarter only if you have obtained the TCS certificate (Form 27D) or it reflects in your Form 26AS or AIS.

 However, this adjustment is only allowed if the TCS is deducted on or after 1st April 2023.

 2. _Adjustment against tax dues_: If you cannot adjust TCS against advance tax, you can claim a refund or adjust it against tax dues when filing your income tax return (ITR) for the relevant year.

 You can claim the TCS credit in your ITR and adjust it against your tax liability.

 3. _Timeline_: Ensure you claim the TCS credit within the prescribed timeline, which is typically 1 year from the date of TCS deduction or 1 year from the date of filing your ITR, whichever is later.

 4. _Applicability_: These rules apply to most forms of TCS deducted, including TCS on foreign remittances for education.

However, specific provisions might vary for other types of TCS, such as TCS on property purchases or TCS on certain goods. 

Thanks for the detailed clarification
