Tax Glossary
Plain-English definitions for the terms on your notices.
219 income tax terms, searchable and linked to their own pages — from "Assessment Year" to "Withholding Tax."
Nothing matches that search. Try a form number (26AS) or
ask us directly — we'll explain it and add it here.
Got a notice you don't understand?
Send it across. We'll tell you what it actually asks for and what the real deadline is — usually shorter than people assume.
