What TAN Adv Is Used For
Deductor verification
Confirm a TAN belongs to the organisation named on a TDS certificate before you accept it.
Employer and payroll onboarding
Verify an employer TAN with its registered address and contact details during business KYC.
TDS compliance
Validate the TAN on file before filing returns, so a rejected filing does not cost you a penalty.
Vendor master cleanup
Re-verify TAN records across a supplier database and correct stale addresses.

What it doesSaves your API key in this browser only using localStorage. Next time you open a docs page, the Try It panel is pre-filled automatically.
2
Auto-updatesIf you type a different key into any Try It field, the saved key is replaced instantly — only the most recent key is ever stored.
3
Uncheck to forgetUnchecking “Remember API Key” immediately deletes the stored key and clears the field. While unchecked, nothing is saved even if you type a new key.
4
Re-check to save againChecking the box again saves whatever key is currently in the Try It field.
⚠ Security note: Your key is stored only in your browser and is never sent to any server except as part of the actual API call you send. Do not use this feature on shared or public computers.
