    Form 16 is a form issued by the employer to the employees, this act as proof that TDS has been deducted and deposited with the tax authorities on the employee’s behalf. In this article, we will discuss all the important aspects of Form-16.

    1. Basics of Form-16

    Using the TRACES (https://www.tdscpc.gov.in/app/login.xhtml) portal an employer can generate and download Form-16 TRACES. The employer shall cross-validate the contents of the Form-16 before issuing the certificate.
