Pay rent. File TDS.
Avoid penalties.
India's only platform that handles TDS deduction and Form 26QC filing automatically. Takes 3 minutes. Only ₹299.
"Got a notice from IT dept about non-filing. Used RentSafe, filed arrears for 6 months in one go. Process was clear and certificate arrived within 2 days."
"My landlord was asking me about the TDS certificate for months. RentSafe handled everything — within 48 hours both of us received our documents."
"Much better than trying to navigate TRACES myself. ₹299 is absolutely worth avoiding the ₹200/day penalty I was unknowingly accumulating."

Frequently asked questions
Under Section 194IB of the Income Tax Act, any individual or HUF paying rent above ₹50,000/month must deduct 5% TDS from the rent and deposit it with the government. Failure to do so attracts a penalty of up to ₹1 lakh under Section 271C, plus ₹200/day late filing fee under Section 234E.
Yes. You continue paying rent to your landlord as you always have — bank transfer, cheque, UPI. RentSafe only handles the TDS compliance part: collecting the TDS amount, depositing it to the government, and filing Form 26QC on your behalf.
You need: your own PAN, your landlord's PAN, the monthly rent amount, and the rental period you want to file for. Your landlord's PAN is required by the Income Tax Department — most landlords share it willingly as it helps them claim TDS credit.
You can file arrears for previous quarters. The late filing fee under Section 234E is ₹200/day — so the sooner you file, the lower your total cost. Our arrears filing service (₹499/quarter) handles this completely.
Form 26QC is filed within 72 hours of payment confirmation. You will receive email updates at each step: payment received → TDS deposited → form filed → certificate sent.
Yes. All data is encrypted in transit (HTTPS) and at rest. We use it only for the purpose of filing Form 26QC on your behalf. We never sell, share, or use your data for any other purpose. See our Privacy Policy for details.
