TRACES Reconciliation FAQ
What buyers ask.
Default notice from TRACES. What does the system do?
Default notices (short-deduction, late-payment, late-filing) are pulled into the dashboard with the underlying variance. The CFO and CA review; correction return is drafted automatically where applicable. Manual response is supported where the variance is disputed.
How often does TRACES update?
Challan status updates after the bank challan is paid (typically within 24-48 hours). Deductee defaults appear after the quarterly return processing (1-2 weeks). The system pulls daily and notifies on new defaults.
Conso-file download. What is it for?
The conso-file is the consolidated TDS file maintained by TRACES per TAN per FY. It is required for filing correction returns. The system downloads and parses the conso-file automatically when a correction is needed.
