\ud83d\udcdd Quick Summary:<\/div>\n

<\/span>Coupon TDS is the tax an issuer deducts from the interest it pays you on a bond. Form 26AS shows the TDS credited to your PAN, while the Annual Information Statement (AIS) shows the interest income reported against you. Reconciling means matching your own coupon records against both, line by line.<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Bond coupons feel like the simplest income in your portfolio. They arrive on schedule, the amount is fixed, and the issuer deducts tax before you see a rupee. That is exactly why they are easy to overlook at the time of filing returns. If the TDS on your coupons doesn\u2019t show up correctly in your tax records, you could pay tax twice on the same income or miss a refund you are owed.<\/p>
