Previous employer salary and other income to current employer, Form 122 (earlier Forms 12B and 12BAA)

What this means, checked by a CA

When you change jobs, your new employer does not know what you earned and what tax was cut before you joined. Form 122 tells them, so the year's TDS is right and you do not face a tax bill and interest at filing time. You can also report a home loan loss or other income on it.

₹999

Each time you join a new employer in the year; once a year for other income, + 18% GST

  • Delivered in 1 working day after documents
  • Due: As early as possible after joining, and not later than 31 March of the tax year
