Submission of Form 15G and 15H has been simplified

Form 15G and 15H submission is been simplified by CBDT

December 5, 2015

 The CBDT, in its recent notification, has declared that the submitting of Form 15G and 15H has been simplified. This mainly asks the Deductor to have online provisions for accepting the declaration.

Now, as we know, if the taxpayer is not seeking any deductions under the section 197A, then (s)he can submit a self-declaration of the same in the form of Form 15G and 15H. This was done either in paper format or electronically at the web link provided by the deductor.

In this process, it was mandatory that the deductee had to quote his/her PAN, in accordance with the provisions of section 206AA(2).

The notice further stated that the Deductor, after due verification of the self-declaration has to assign a unique identification number (UIN) to the declaration.

The payer will have to digitize the declaration on paper and upload all the declarations, including the electronic declarations. These declarations are those received during the particular quarter.

The declarations have to be uploaded on to the department website, but as of now there is no clarity as to the mechanism for the same.

The unique identification number (UIN) allotted to the declaration has to contain the following fields: A sequence number as shown in the table; the financial year for which the declaration is being provided and TAN of the Deductor.

 

15G 15H

10 alphanumeric character starting with

G followed by 9 digits (Eg. G000000001)

10 alphanumeric character starting with

H followed by 9 digits (Eg. H000000001)

 

The UIN running sequence number series would be reset to 1 at the start of each financial year, in the case of each TAN of the payer.

The sequence number must be a 10 digit alphanumeric string of characters, starting with G or H for Form 15G and 15H respectively.

Additionally, the Deductor has to quote the 10 character ‘Sequence Number’ (field ‘a’ of the UIN) in quarterly TDS Statement against the transaction which is covered under 15G and 15H declaration, according to the provision.

Also, it is mandatory to quote the same in the “Certificate Number” field for Form26Q where the Deduction remark is set to as “NO DEDUCTION U/S 197A” (Flag-B).

This is applicable for statements which pertain to the Financial Year 2015-16, Quarter 3 onwards.

Consequently, the File Validation Utility (FVU) will be updated before long by the NSDL, which will incorporate the changes mentioned above.

      W.E.F 1st October 2015, submitting of physical copy of FORM 15G/15H is not required. The deductor has to report the same in their Quarterly TDS Return filing statement by mentioning the UIN (Unique Identification Number) provided to the customer by the deductor.

        Dear Sir
        What if the person doesn’t have TAN no and he is only receiving 15G/15H from concerned person and he is forwarding the same to Department.

        • relyonadmin

          A person is not liable to receive Form 15G/15H without having TAN No.. Hence no further processes exists.
