Employees are expected to declare their investments at the start of every financial year. It is important to submit the documents and proof to support their investment declarations before the end of financial year. Tax is calculated based on their investment declaration. Empxtrack allows employees to generate TDS advice for the financial year on both the declared and the actual investment amount.
Empxtrack supports the new and old income tax regimes allowing employees to make the the right choice.
Note: The functionality to seek TDS advice is not available in Empxtrack Free Payroll and HR software. Upgrade to the paid version to allow your employees to generate tax advice in the system.

- Declared Investment: If this option is selected the TDS would be calculated on the investment declarations that you have provided to the company and the TDS advice would be generated on the calculated amount.
- Actual Investment: If this option is selected the TDS would be calculated on the actual investment proof that you have submitted to the company and the TDS advice would be generated on the calculated amount.
The TDS Advice will be automatically generated according to the selected option.
