Bottom line
Quarterly returns are due 31 July, 31 October, 31 January and 31 May for Q1 to Q4 respectively.TDS statements are filed quarterly. For FY 2026-27 the due dates are: Q1 (Apr–Jun) – 31 July 2026, Q2 (Jul–Sep) – 31 October 2026, Q3 (Oct–Dec) – 31 January 2027, and Q4 (Jan–Mar) – 31 May 2027.
Missing a return date attracts a fee of ₹200 per day under Section 234E (capped at the TDS in the statement), so file even if slightly short on reconciliation and revise later.
General information for FY 2026-27 under the Income-tax Act 2025, not advice on your specific case. Verify against the latest law or ask a CA before acting.
