Compress a PDF for Income-Tax e-Filing
Income-tax and GST portals cap uploaded proofs, challans and statements — often a few hundred KB to a few MB. Compress your scans to fit while keeping figures legible, all in your browser, so your financial documents are never uploaded to a third party.
The requirement
- Common limits
- A few hundred KB to a few MB

- Challans, proofs, statements, notices
- Privacy
- Financial docs stay on your device
- Format
These are typical published values and can change from year to year and from one portal to another. Always confirm the exact requirement in the official notification or upload portal before you submit — the official source takes precedence over anything here.
Step by step
- 1Check the portal's per-document size limit.
- 2Open the pre-armed compressor at that target and add your PDF.
- 3Download and upload each document to the filing.
