TAN Verification — TDS/TCS Deductor Check

Verify Tax Deduction/Collection Account Number (TAN) in real time. Confirm deductor identity, category, jurisdiction, and filing health to reduce compliance and vendor risk.

Why TAN Verification?

TAN uniquely identifies TDS/TCS deductors. Verifying TAN helps ensure compliant remittances, accurate certificates, and trustworthy vendor/merchant onboarding.

  • • Validate TAN format & checksum (10‑char: 4 letters, 5 digits, 1 letter)
  • • Deductor legal name & category (Govt/Non‑Govt/Branch, etc.)
  • • Address & Assessing Officer (AO) / jurisdiction mapping
  • • Basic filing health signals for TDS/TCS (where supported)

Why Anada for TAN?

  • ✔ Instant lookup with webhooks & idempotency
  • ✔ PAN linkage hints for deductor entity (where derivable)
  • ✔ Bulk CSV import and async queue processing
  • ✔ MIS dashboards, exports, and audit trails
  • ✔ One console with PAN, GST, MCA, bank, and KYC checks
