FAQ :

Form 49B is being abolished and replaced by Form No. 134 for government entities and Form No. 135 for all non-government applicants, effective April 1, 2026.

All persons, companies, government departments, and business entities in India required to deduct or collect tax at source must use the new forms for TAN applications.

PAN is mandatory for non-government applicants. Government entities must provide their Account Office Identification Number (AIN), and companies must provide their Corporate Identity Number (CIN).

A private limited company, being a non-government entity, must use Form No. 135 for its TAN application.

For non-government applicants using Form 135, mandatory supporting documents include proof of identity, proof of address, and proof of date of birth or incorporation.
