Understanding TDS - Tax Deducted at Source

Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) is a mechanism introduced by the Income Tax Department where tax is deducted at the source of income generation. When you make specified payments like salary, rent, or professional fees, you must deduct TDS at prescribed rates and deposit it with the government.

How TDS Works

TDS ensures regular tax collection and reduces tax evasion by collecting tax at the point of income generation. The person making the payment (deductor) deducts tax and deposits it with the government on behalf of the recipient (deductee).

TDS Amount = Payment Amount × TDS Rate
Net Payment to Recipient = Gross Payment - TDS Amount
(Subject to threshold limits for each section)

Frequently Asked Questions about TDS Calculator

What is the TDS rate if PAN is not provided?

If the recipient doesn't provide PAN, TDS is deducted at 20% or the rate specified in the section, whichever is higher. This higher rate was introduced to encourage PAN compliance.

When is TDS not applicable?

TDS is not applicable when payment amount is below the threshold limit specified for each section. For example, no TDS on professional services if payment is below ₹30,000.

What are the due dates for TDS deposit?

TDS must be deposited by the 7th of the month following the month in which TDS was deducted. For March deductions, the due date is April 30th.

Can TDS be claimed as refund?

Yes, if TDS deducted exceeds your actual tax liability, you can claim the excess amount as refund while filing your income tax return. The refund will be processed after assessment.

What is the difference between TDS and TCS?

TDS is deducted by the payer from payments made, while TCS (Tax Collected at Source) is collected by the seller from the buyer at the time of sale of specified goods.

Do I need to deduct TDS on payments to government?
