Following are some useful information to adhere before submitting Corrections, with special reference to C3 & C9: What are C3 & C9 Corrections? · C3 Correction involves Updation or Addition of Deductee details in the TDS statement. The facility to delete Deductee records has now been discontinued for the purpose of correct reporting and is no longer permissible in the TDS statements. Accordingly, the delete option available under "Updation mode for Deductee" has been removed from RPU 3.8. · Revision of TDS Statement by way of Adding a new Challan and underlying Deducteesis referred to as C9 Correction. Important points to adhere while submitting Corrections: · Correct and Complete Reporting: It is very important to report correct and valid particulars (TAN of the deductor, Category (Government / Non-Government) of the deductor, PAN of the deductees and other particulars of deduction of tax) in the TDS statement. Please ensure that records are corrected for all deductees reported in the correctionsto avoid multiple submissions. · Addition of new deductee rows and thereby, challans is not encouraged by CPC (TDS), except for inadvertent errors.
