Saral TDS - Corporate

We've earlier reviewed Saral TDS Professional edition (August 2004, page 116). The Corporate edition is an upgraded one, which has provision of detailed employee tax calculation, TDS challan printing and

TDS-related form generation. You can file TDS return electronically and export TDS to NSDL utility. 

The tax calculation module lets you enter the basic details of the employee tax. After this calculation of critical tax elements such as taxable income, exemptions, interest on NSC is done automatically. There is also a separate utility for tax planning which helps to compute the taxable income that the company can receive for an employee. If you want to export employee's tax details, MIS report option does that. The challan form generates challan and adheres to the standard format as required by the income tax act. Just fill the challan details, take printout and file it. The challan can also be saved. 

You can also generate Form 16 with all the relevant details of the employee's salary. Saralcan also generate forms such as 12BA/ 12C/2D/2E/16AA which are required by companies. We generated Form 16 for one of the employees and the form had the details filled and calculations done. A non corporate who does not need to file

e-TDS can generate Form 24 in the standard format. A good feature is that challans and forms can be generated either in Crystal Reports, Excel or text

format. 

The Bottom Line: It will save time in computing and filling income tax related details of the employees.
