What this screen is for
GSTR-7 is the return filed by those who deduct tax at source, and GSTR-8 by e-commerce operators who collect it. This screen covers both sides. The TDS Received and TCS Received tabs list the credits sitting against your GSTIN, with the deductor or collector's GSTIN and name, gross value, and IGST, CGST and SGST. The GSTR-7 and GSTR-8 tabs show your own return filing details where you are the deductor or collector. Summary cards total TDS and TCS received and show the status of each return.
When to use it
Use it when reconciling the credits you expect against what has actually been reported for a month. Data is fetched live from the GST portal and needs an authenticated session.
What you see on this screen
The header reads Tax Deducted / Collected at Source, with your GSTIN and the month in view.
Four cards: TDS Received, with the number of deductors; TCS Received, with the number of collectors; GSTR-7 Status; and GSTR-8 Status.
Four tabs follow.
TDS Received (2X) — TDS Credits Received, described as tax deducted at source by your deductors, taken from GSTR-2X. Columns: Deductor GSTIN, Deductor Name, Gross Value, IGST, CGST, SGST, closing with a Total row.
TCS Received (2X) — TCS Credits Received, tax collected at source by e-commerce operators, in the same shape: Collector GSTIN, Collector Name, Gross Value, IGST, CGST, SGST.
GSTR-7 (TDS Filed) — your own TDS deduction and filing summary, applicable if you are registered as a TDS deductor, split into Filing Summary and TDS Deduction Details.
GSTR-8 (TCS Filed) — your own TCS collection and filing summary, applicable to e-commerce operators, with TCS Collection Details.
Each tab also exposes the raw portal response. Where a period has nothing, the tab says so plainly, and explains what that means: no supplier deducted TDS on payments to you, or no operator collected TCS on your behalf.
Filters and actions
Month and year selectors choose the period, with Previous and Next stepping through months. Fetch from GST Portal retrieves all four sets at once. An open GST portal session is required; the screen asks for your portal username and the OTP sent to your registered mobile if there is not one.
Status values
The GSTR-7 Status and GSTR-8 Status cards each read Data Available or No Data for the selected month.
