Form 15G and Form 15H – Avoid TDS
TDS stands for “Tax Deducted at Source.” On October 15, 2015, the Income Tax Department reported a new plan of action for Form 15G and Form 15H. This article will focus on the fundamental changes that happened in Form 15G and Form 15H.
What is Form 15G And Form 15H?
Form 15G and Form 15H forms are self-declaration forms that we have to submit to the bank. These are the requesting form for not deducting the TDS (Tax Deducted at Source) on interest income as their income is below the BEL (Basic Exemption Limit). These forms will be filled online by visiting the bank’s website.
Note-Bank would ask you for the PAN card during the form submission, either online or offline.
- A UIN (Unique Identification Number) has been allotted to the person who will make the payment by Deductor.
- TDS Quarterly statements were maintained by Deductors that whether or not any TDS will be deducted along with the UIN.
- These Deductors do not require any hard copy of Form 15G and Form 15H for submission.
- Deductors monitored form 15G and Form 15H for seven years from the financial year in which these are received.
Who can Submit Form 15H and 15G?
Form 15H is specifically for the person above or equals to age 60, and any age group can submit that of Form 15G.
Form 15G | Form 15H |

When will We Have to Submit Form 15G & Form 15H?
These forms are valid for one financial year, so we have to submit this form every year. At the beginning of the financial year, these forms (Form 15G and Form 15H) have to be submitted. Submitting the form at the beginning of the financial year, the bank does not deduct any TDS (Tax Deducted at Source) on our interest.
