  5 steps to e-TDS/e-TCS return The data structure (file format) in which the e-TDS / e-TCS return is to be prepared has been notified below: (a) Annual e-TDS return: File Format for Form 24 File Format for Form 26 File Format for Form 27 (b) Annual e-TCS return: File Format for Form 27E (c) Quarterly return: File Format for Form 24Q File Format for Form 26Q File Format for Form 27Q File Format for Form 27EQ Data structure for Form 24Q of the quarter ending 31-March e-TDS/e-TCS return in accordance with the file formats is to be prepared in clean text ASCII format with 'txt' as filename extension. e-TDS/e-TCS return can be prepared using in-house software, any other third party software or the NSDL e-TDS Return Preparation Utility (e-TDS RPU-Light). Feedback Form Sample files prepared as per the file formats given below for reference. Annual Return: Sample file of e-TDS return - Form 24 Sample file of e-TDS return - Form 26 Sample file of e-TDS return - Form 27 Quarterly Return: Sample file for Form 24Q Sample file for Form 26Q Sample file for Form 27Q Sample file for Form 27EQ Once the file has been prepared as per the file format, it should be verified using the File Validation Utility (FVU) provided by NSDL. * FVU for Annual Returns: e-TDS / e-TCS returns prepared for FY 2004-05 (Forms 24, 26, 27 and 27E) can be validated using this utility. * FVU for Quarterly Returns: e-TDS / e-TCS returns prepared for FY 2005-06 and onwards (i.e. Forms 24Q, 26Q, 27Q and 27EQ) can be validated using this utility. In case file has any errors the FVU will give a report of the errors. Rectify the errors and verify the file again through the FVU. The upload file generated by the FVU on successful validation is to be furnished to a TIN-FC or directly uploaded through the NSDL web-site. Annual Returns: Each e-TDS return saved in a CD/floppy to be submitted along with a signed copy of the control chart (Form 27A). Each e-TCS return saved in a CD/floppy to be submitted along with a signed copy of the control chart (Form 27B). Quarterly Returns: Each e-TDS/TCS return saved in a CD/floppy to be submitted along with a signed copy of the control chart (Form 27A).
