Preparing Form 145
How do I prepare Form 145 Part C?
Part C can fetch and map a filed Form 146 using its acknowledgement number, then collect the remaining Part C inputs.
Navigation: Open Forms 145/146 → Forms Dashboard → 145 Part C → New Filing → Fetch & Input
How to do it
- Click New Filing in 145 Part C and connect the extension to the correct remitter account.
- In Fetch & Input, under Fetch Form 146 Data from IT Portal, enter the Form 146 acknowledgement and click Fetch & Fill.
- Review the mapped Remitter, Remittee, CA Details, Remittance, Tax & DTAA, and TDS & Verify sections.
- Complete the remaining manual fields, including the verification details, and check Certificate Number (146 Ack).
- Click Save Draft. After the local record exists, its Documents drawer can attach evidence. Save Draft to Portal / Update Portal and Submit with DSC are later actions.
What to expect
Fetched data populates a Part C draft; it does not automatically submit Part C.
Important details
- Part C uses remitter credentials even though its source is a CA's Form 146 certificate.
- Fetching a certificate from the portal is different from finding a matching Form 146 already saved in this organisation for document linking.
