Upload Form 16 on the portal

Form 16 is a certificate that employers issue to their employees. It validates the fact that TDS has been deducted and deposited with the authorities on behalf of the employee. Form 16 has two components: Part A and Part B. Form 16 Part A needs to be downloaded from the TRACES website, while Part B is generated by the employer. After Part B is generated, it has to be published so that employees can download it.

Follow these steps to upload Form 16 Part A & B:

1. Navigate to Control Panel → Payroll → Form 16.
2. Click ^Upload (in the page action bar) to upload Form 16 A & B for the employee.
3. A new page opens with fields for Financial Year (select the required FY), Form-16 Type (select Part A or Part B separately) and the Upload file option.
4. Note: Form 16 files should be named in the following format:
   PAN_Form16Partname_EmployeeName_Financial Year YYYY format.
   5. When Form 16 is visible on the portal, select all employees and choose Published from the drop-down.
