Saral TDS and Greenote: which does what

TDS return software from Bengaluru in three published editions, from return filing for professionals up to salary computation and Form 24G for institutions.

Saral TDS is one of the established TDS return products, with its editions and prices on the page. The Professional edition files returns and issues certificates; the Corporate edition adds salary tax computation and a Form 16 with Part A and Part B together. Greenote does not prepare a TDS return or a Form 16 in any plan today.

Greenote reads the books in Tally and looks for two things: payments that should have had TDS deducted and did not, and differences between the client’s 26AS or AIS and the books. Those feed the audit and the next correction; the filing itself stays with software like Saral TDS.

Who Saral TDS suits

  • A tax professional filing TDS returns for many deductors.

  • An employer who wants salary TDS computed and Form 16 with Part A and Part B together.

  • A bank or institution with Form 24G and bulk verification needs.

Does Greenote issue a GST invoice?
No. Greenote is not GST-registered, so no GST is added to the listed price and the amount shown is the amount charged.

If input credit matters more to you than the headline price, a GST-registered vendor is the better commercial choice.
