A common question

What is Form 16 called now?

Under the Income-tax Rules, 2026 the salary TDS certificate is Form 130, for tax year 2026-27 onwards. Certificates for the year to 31 March 2026 are still issued as Form 16.

Its purpose is unchanged: a statement from the employer of salary paid and tax deducted, used by employees to file their returns.

Questions we get asked

Form 16 and Employee Tax Declarations: Questions, Answered

What is Form 16?

The certificate an employer issues to each employee showing salary paid and tax deducted for the year. From tax year 2026-27 it is Form 130.

When is investment proof collected?

Towards the end of the financial year, so TDS for the last months can be trued up to the verified figures.

What if an employee changes tax regime?

The employer deducts under the regime the employee chooses; the employee can still choose differently when filing their return, within the rules.

Do you file the quarterly TDS statements?

Yes. Salary TDS statements are filed each quarter and the certificates issued after the year ends.
