TDS
RECONCILIATION
When you match your Or Reconcile your TDS Deduction Calculation with 26AS (Form in which the TDS deduction appears) it is called a TDS reconciliation.
When someone deducts TDS from your income, they will deposit this deducted amount with the government account in your name by your PAN number.
There may be a discrepancy in your calculation and 26AS. Therefore, the TDS reconciliation lets you know which deductor has not deposited their amount or there may be some error in their own calculation.

The most common reasons for such mismatch (s) are listed below:
- Deductor fails to deposit TDS on time

- Error in CIN (Challan Identification Number)
- The deductor’s PAN / TAN entered incorrectly
