TDS || Conso Import → File is not valid, TAN mismatch

Consolidate File Import – File Invalid Due to TAN Mismatch

      

​
Root cause of the error →
This error occurs when attempting to import a consolidated file associated with one Deductor into a different Deductor’s account. A discrepancy in the TAN (Tax Deduction and Collection Account Number) prevents the import from being completed.

Resolution →
  1. Ensure that you are logged into the correct Deductor’s account in the TDS software.
  2. Check that the TAN registered in the software matches the TAN in the consolidated file.
  3. If a mismatch is found, download the correct consolidated file from the TRACES portal.
  4. While downloading, ensure that you choose the appropriate financial year, quarter, and form type.
  5. Before initiating the import, carefully verify that the selected file corresponds to the correct Deductor’s account.
  6. Once the file and TAN are confirmed, proceed with the import process in the TDS software.
Following these steps will help facilitate a smooth and error-free import of the consolidated file.
