Winman TDS and Greenote: which does what

Desktop TDS software from the makers of Winman CA-ERP, with one-click downloads of challans and FVU files and mass status checks. Its price could not be read on its site.

Winman TDS is the TDS product beside Winman CA-ERP. Its home page describes it in a few lines: challans and FVU files downloaded in one click, reports on challan use, interest and short deduction, a TDS report for 3CD, and mass checks of PAN status, challans and e-return status. This page repeats only what is written there, and you should ask Winman for the detail on forms and certificates.

Greenote is not TDS return software. It checks the books: payments where TDS was due and not deducted, and the 26AS and AIS against the books. If you need to file a quarterly statement, you need a product like Winman TDS.

Who Winman TDS suits

  • A practice already on Winman CA-ERP for income tax.

  • A CA filing TDS for many deductors who wants challans and statuses fetched in bulk.

  • A firm moving from another TDS product, which their page says it can migrate from.

Can I use Greenote together with Winman TDS?
Yes, and for most practices that is the sensible arrangement. Greenote gets the books into Tally and checks them; Winman TDS is where the return is prepared and filed. The two do not pass data to each other, so you carry the figures across yourself.
How much does Greenote cost compared with Winman TDS?
The TDS work is in the Tax and Audit plan, which is ₹11,999 a year for one person and includes everything in Starter. All-in-One, which is every plan together with the office around them, is ₹14,999. No GST is added on top. Winman TDS does not publish a price we could read on 11 October 2026, so ask them directly for a current figure rather than relying on any third-party page.
Can I try Greenote first?
Yes. We set up every free trial on a short call, so it is ready for your own statements. The free trial runs for 2 days or 10 statements, whichever comes first, and needs no card. If you need more statements to be sure, ask us and we will add them.
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. The trade-off is that there is no GST invoice and therefore no input tax credit for your firm. If input credit matters more to you than the headline price, a GST-registered vendor is the better commercial choice.
