Page 4: Phase 2 Planning & CPC-TDS Phase 2 Design of …Challan Payment and Credit of TDS - Passbook System No linking or interlocking of challan (payment) with TDS deductors (statement) required

Why the Need of Phase 2-

Problem Statement

– 1. Compliance/ enforcement/ evasion- ITD

– 2. Services -TPS- taxpayer, deductors, AOs

– 3. Ignorance/ incapacity of taxpayers and AOs

– 4. Limitations of TDS compliance platform- Technology as well as law

– 5. Technology refresh- due to emerging technology and obsolescence

Page 5: Phase 2 Planning & CPC-TDS Phase 2 Design of …Challan Payment and Credit of TDS - Passbook System No linking or interlocking of challan (payment) with TDS deductors (statement) required

Why the Need of Phase 2-

Solution statement (Approach)

– 1. Research, envisioning & Preparing a Roadmap for 10 years (Jan.- May ’17)

– 2. Stakeholder Consultation

– Taxpayers, Deductors, Professional Bodies, OEMs, AOs, ITD, Inter-Module & Inter-

Department consultations

– 3. SAINTS Approach

– 4. Planning & Design and Brainstorming with Consultants

– 5. Industry Consultations

Page 6: Phase 2 Planning & CPC-TDS Phase 2 Design of …Challan Payment and Credit of TDS - Passbook System No linking or interlocking of challan (payment) with TDS deductors (statement) required

Why the Need of Phase 2-

Specific Issues/ Areas Addressed

– KMS- For Training & Capacity building

– Emerging tech

– End to end automation

– LMS

– Business intelligence- enforcement and fraud prevention

– Natural systems and continuous or running ledger

Page 7: Phase 2 Planning & CPC-TDS Phase 2 Design of …Challan Payment and Credit of TDS - Passbook System No linking or interlocking of challan (payment) with TDS deductors (statement) required

Why the Need of Phase 2-

Specific Issues/ Areas Addressed …Contd.

– Passbook system for fungibility in TDS payments

– AI and cognitive computing- fraud prevention, taxpayer services (virtual assistants), automation of services and processes

– Omni channel two way communication- mobile app, email, call, document, sms, chat apps & social networks

– Grievance redressal and dispute resolution- including appeals- automation & Accuracy

– Dynamic TDS rates under s. 197

– Integrations with other partners for validation/ confirmation/ data exchange of transactions- GSTN, MCA, stock exchanges, NSDL, banks, financial institutions, regulators and commissioners and registrars of statutory or government bodies.

Key Innovations Planned in Critical Services of Phase 2

API & Blockchain based, GST like Real-time Deductee Row wise

filing of TDS deductions

Instead of all TDS transactions for 3 months being filed together,

each TDS deduction to be transmitted individually as an

independent file (3 month, or any period option also available)

All such individual deductee rows to be compiled in a continuous

ledger for the Deductor

The deductee row details to be prepared and transmitted

automatically from Deductor to CPC TDS immediately after entry

in Books of Accounts of Deductors, using Natural Systems and

Blockchain based APIs

Intimations to deductees for such deductions to go on a near

realtime basis- choice of apps, emails, SMSes and personalised

dashboards for taxpayers

Facility for deductees to raise objections directly from their inbox

Existing and New Systems to run in parallel; transition & change

management

Passbook System for TDS paid by Deductors with

electronic credit for all TDS in their dashboard

Deductors can modify or allocate any amount from

Passbook to a deductee row or a set of rows by

querying/calling for available credit amounts (TDS in

passbook) deposited within a period of time or date

Locking of TDS credit with liability and subsequent

freezing to kick in after that; to check frauds

State-of -Art Call Centre & Ticket Management System

• AI based Virtual Assistants

• Omni-Channel communication- Paper, email, Call,

SMS, Mobile App

• Personalized Dashboards for all Stakeholders

• Real-time, automated online mismatch removal system

Online Appellate Process

API File Format i.e. Deductor’s ledger Account format to be in sync and tandem with ITD [CPC

(TDS)] current or proposed simplified TDS/TCS form for filling of applicable TDS/TCS statements.

Every Deductee Row to have an optionality to be seamlessly filed

Conversely, Deductor can send his/her Statement rows at his deemed suitability to CPC TDS

for processing with End of Quarter as a deadline

Failing which transactions sent for processing after applicable timelines will initiate default

generation.

Correction Filing -> Subsequent to default/demand Generation or at his/her deemed situation

The processing results will be transmitted back into designed ledger accounts in the

accounting software of the deductor so that the deductor have the latest and real-time

processing results

The TDS/TCS deduction statements will be processed and accounted for on a row-to-row basis

instead of a batch of rows

All such rows will be prepared, processed and stored in a continuous ledger.

Challan Payment and Credit of TDS - Passbook System

No linking or interlocking of challan (payment) with TDS deductors (statement) required untila. After the processing of TDS deductors (statement) u/s 200Ab. Challan (payment) credit is available in OLTAS

Automated algorithm will then match and link (pre-tagging) the TDS deduction (statement) with the right challan.

Deductors can override such automated pre-tagging and reallocate/ re-tag the credit

All TDS Payments to appear as credit in a sort of a passbook – Any sum up to 1 Rupee can be tagged with any statement (Deducted Row)

Deductor can modify or allocate any amount from Passbook to a deductee row or a set of rows by querying/calling for available credit amounts (TDS in passbook) deposited within a period of time or on a particular date

Once such tagging is submitted by deductor, the payments will be finally locked with TDS deductors/ statements.

Once the credits are locked, the rules of freezing and unfreezing shall apply

Impact of Natural Systems and Passbook System

Transactionalization of deductee rows

• Each deductee row to be a TDS statement in itself

Ledgerization of deductee rows- Running or Continuous Ledger

• Deductee rows can be pulled & processed together or singly for any period

Passbooking of payments and then locking the credit amounts in Passbook with liability w.r.t each deductee row;

• To be done in automated manner for best fit after considering time & Interest impact

• Deductor to have overriding power to change automated linking

• Once locked, the rules of freezing & unfreezing to apply

At present, the FILING PROCESS is MANUAL in mostof the Pr. CCIT Regions

The processing by the concerned AO TDS is a completely manual process, which involves physical hearings and

submissions

The award of No/LDC and its subsequent accounting in thededuction process by Deductor and processing by CPC TDS

is accomplished through a mix of manual and semi-automated processes

As a result, both the taxpayers, Deductors and FAO have to go through a no. of steps in managing & discharging

their respective obligations
