Missing a TDS return due date triggers an automatic ₹200/day late filing fee under Section 234E — so having the full FY2026-27 quarterly calendar on hand is one of the simplest ways to avoid an entirely avoidable cost.
TCS returns are due 15 days earlier each quarter: 15 July, 15 October, 15 January, and 15 May respectively. Use our interactive Due Date Calendar to get reminders auto-adjusted for any CBDT circular changes, and our late filing penalty calculator if a deadline has already passed.
31 July 2026, for Form 24Q, 26Q, and 27Q. Form 27EQ (TCS) for the same quarter is due 15 July 2026.
The standard due dates are consistent across years, but CBDT can extend them via circular in specific years — always double check before a filing deadline.
Unless CBDT issues a specific extension, the statutory due date generally still applies regardless of weekends or holidays, so it's best to file a few days early.
