Advance Tax Payment
If your tax bill for the year crosses ₹10,000, the department expects it in four instalments, not one lump sum at filing time. We compute each quarter's amount, pay it for you, and keep the 234B/234C interest away.

Overview
What advance tax actually is
Advance tax is income tax paid in instalments during the year you earn the income — not after the year ends.
It applies when your total tax liability for the year is ₹10,000 or more, after reducing TDS.
The standard schedule is 15%, 45%, 75%, and 100% of the estimated liability by 15 June, 15 September, 15 December, and 15 March.
Senior citizens aged 60+ with no business income are exempt from paying it.
Benefits
Why founders pay advance tax through us
Open each benefit to see what it means for you.
Accurate quarterly computation
We compute your advance tax from your actual income streams — salary, business, capital gains, rental — and tell you exactly what is due each quarter.
Avoid 234B/234C interest
Underpaid advance tax attracts interest under Sections 234B and 234C. Proper quarterly payment keeps that interest off your assessment.
No missed instalments
One short call a quarter, and the instalments are computed, paid, and documented. You never have to track the dates yourself.
Estimates that adjust with you
If your income changes mid-year, we revise the estimates so you are not overpaying tax you will wait a year to get back.

What is a CIN?
Every Private Limited Company gets a unique 21-character Corporate Identification Number from the MCA. It's proof your company legally exists. You'll need it for bank accounts, tax filings, and contracts. We handle the entire application — you just provide the documents above.
Not sure if your documents are ready?
Send us what you have. A ComplyKart expert will review them for free and tell you exactly what's missing — no obligation.
Get Free Document ReviewQuestions Founders ask us about documents
What if my address proof is old?
Utility bills and bank statements must be less than 2 months old. If yours are older, get a fresh copy — the MCA rejects stale proofs.
Do I need original documents?
No. Clear scans or photos work for the entire process. We never ask you to courier originals.
What if directors live in different cities?
That's normal. Each director uploads their own documents separately. Our system keeps everything organised.
I'm outside India. Can I still register a company?
Yes. India allows 100% foreign ownership in most sectors, and the entire process happens online. You need one Indian resident director, and your passport + address proof must be apostilled — we'll guide you through both. NRI founders and foreign investors do this with us regularly.
Check if you're eligible →How long does registration actually take?
7 to 10 working days from the day your documents are verified. Name approval takes 2-3 days, MCA incorporation another 5-7. We track every stage and update you.
Can I start if I'm missing one document?
Yes. Start now with what you have — we begin name reservation and DSC while you arrange the rest. Most founders are missing one proof; it rarely blocks the timeline.
Process
Advance Tax payment process — step by step
You’ll see each stage, what’s pending and what we need from you — so filings don’t bounce back.
Step 1 of 6
1. Estimate your annual tax
Advance tax applies when your tax liability after TDS is ₹10,000 or more in a year (senior citizens without business income are exempt). We project your full-year income and compute the liability — typically within 1–2 working days.
2. Split it across four instalments
The CBDT schedule is fixed: at least 15% by 15 June, 45% by 15 September, 75% by 15 December and 100% by 15 March. We prepare your instalment plan so each deadline is met.
3. Pay on challan 280
Each instalment is paid on the e-filing portal's e-pay tax facility under challan 280, selecting assessment year and 'advance tax' as the payment type. You get the receipt immediately.
4. Revise estimates each quarter
Income changes through the year — we revise your estimate before the September, December and March instalments so you neither overpay nor fall short.
5. Avoid interest under 234B and 234C
Short payment attracts interest under sections 234B and 234C at 1% per month. We track your payments against the instalment schedule so you stay penalty-free.
6. Adjust at final ITR filing
Advance tax paid is adjusted against your final liability when we file your ITR, and any excess comes back as a refund with interest.

If your total tax liability for the year is ₹10,000 or more after TDS, advance tax applies. Salaried individuals with only TDS-covered income usually fall outside it.
Four instalments: 15% by 15 June, 45% by 15 September, 75% by 15 December, and 100% by 15 March. Taxpayers under presumptive taxation pay it in one instalment by 15 March.
Interest under Sections 234B and 234C — roughly 1% per month on the shortfall. It is not a penalty you can appeal; it is automatic.
Senior citizens (60+) with no business income are exempt from advance tax. Everyone else with sufficient liability must pay.
Capital gains are not covered by the regular quarterly schedule in the same way — they are due in the instalment after the gain arises. Miss this and the interest applies anyway.
Yes, and it is worth doing. Overpaid advance tax sits with the department until your refund is processed — sometimes months. A revised estimate keeps your money with you.
