  2. In the Publish Form 16 section, under the Via Email heading, click Pending. The list of employees appears.
  3. Select Selected Employees/All Employees as per your requirements.
  4. Click Email Form 16. The Below mail will be sent to employee pop-up appears.
  5. On the pop-up, clear the option Set as default message.
  6. Click Send to send Form 16 via mail.
    Note: If you select the option Set as default message, the edit access will be disabled on the Form 16 page.
