greytHR ESS · Income Tax
Your income tax (IT) declaration in greytHR tells payroll about your planned tax-saving investments and eligible expenses, so the right amount of TDS is deducted each month. You submit it from the ESS portal under Salary > IT Declaration, choose between the old and new tax regime, and generate Form 12BB. This guide walks through it step by step. National IT Service is an authorised greytHR partner that configures payroll and tax settings for Indian companies.
On the ESS Home page, go to Salary > IT Declaration and click Start now. Fill the Sec 80C, other Chapter VI-A, HRA, house property and other income sections, select your tax regime, click Submit, then Confirm to send it to payroll. greytHR generates Form 12BB.
As per the income-tax department, a regime can generally be selected only once in the financial year, and if you have business income your choice may carry over to the next year. Choose carefully — check with your payroll team about any change window your employer allows.
Form 12BB is the statement of the tax-saving investments and expenses you have declared. Income-tax rules require you to submit a signed hard copy of Form 12BB to your employer; greytHR generates it automatically from your declaration.
At the start of the year you declare planned investments so TDS is estimated correctly. Later, during the proof-submission window, you upload actual documents (receipts, statements). If proofs fall short of the declaration, the balance TDS is recovered.
