Frequently Asked Questions
Why is my Form 16 PDF too large for the income tax portal?
Many employers generate Form 16 with embedded images, digital signatures, and high-resolution company logos. Part A and Part B combined can easily exceed 5–10 MB, while the incometax.gov.in portal often limits uploads to 5 MB per attachment.
Will compressing Form 16 affect the data needed for ITR filing?
No. Compression reduces image resolution and file overhead without altering text content, TAN details, salary breakup figures, or TDS deductions. The compressed PDF remains a valid copy of your Form 16.
I have Form 16 from multiple employers this assessment year. Can I compress all of them?
Yes. You can compress each Form 16 individually or merge them first using our Merge tool and then compress the combined file. Both approaches work for AY 2026-27 ITR filing.
