Hi Guys,
This is Ravi Verma, In this article, I will tell you how to generate form 16
Let’s begin,
What is Form 16?
Basically, Form 16 is declared as the deduction of the salary of every individual. With the help of this form, every person can file their ITR, under this form all the deduction dates and amounts are entered in that form, after that, and every person can file their ITR with the help of this form.
Because when we file our ITRs, we need our deductions amount and amount deduction date after that we can avail of our tax credit.
