  • Form 16A / 16B / 16C for TDS on other income
  • Salary slips (if Form 16 is unavailable)
  • Interest certificates — savings, FD, RD

Turn this into a one-tap request. In Practivo you can save this checklist as a document request template and send each client a secure link with one upload slot per item — then track who has uploaded what without a single WhatsApp follow-up. See how document collection works →

This checklist is a general guide for common cases and is not tax advice; required documents vary by client and ITR form.
