Important TDS Updates in Budget 2023

What is TDS Chart?

A TDS (Tax Deducted at Source) Chart, also known as a TDS Section Chart, is a reference tool that provides a comprehensive overview of the applicable TDS rates for different types of payments under the Indian income tax system. It presents a structured table or chart format that includes relevant sections of the Income Tax Act, along with corresponding nature of payments, threshold limits, and the applicable TDS rates for various categories of taxpayers.

The TDS Chart serves as a quick reference guide for taxpayers, employers, and deductors to determine the correct TDS rates to be applied while making payments to different parties. TDS rate chart is published by Income Tax Department every year with changes.

Important Points for TDS Deduction

  1. Deduction: TDS is deducted by the payer (deductor) at the time of making certain specified payments to the payee (deductee). The deductor is responsible for deducting the applicable TDS amount from the payment and remitting it to the government.
  2. Applicable payments: TDS is deducted from various types of payments such as salaries, interest, dividends, rent, professional fees, commission, contractual payments, lottery winnings, and more.
  3. TDS Rates: The TDS rates are specified by the government and vary depending on the nature of the payment and the status of the deductee.
    • TDS Rates are higher for companies than for Individuals
    • TDS Rates are higher for foreign companies than domestic companies
    • TDS is charged at a higher rate when PAN is not submitted.
  4. Threshold Limits: TDS is applicable when the payment exceeds a specified threshold limit. The threshold is based on the aggregate of yearly payments to be made.
    • Example, the threshold for TDS on professional fees is 30,000. If a payment of Rs 40,000 is made by hospital to a doctor in two installments of Rs 20000 each, then no TDS is to be deducted in first installment, while TDS on whole 40,000 should be deducted on second installment.
  5. TDS Calculation: TDS is calculated on the value of goods and services. No TDS is to be deducted on GST component
  6. TDS Certificate: After deducting TDS, the deductor needs to issue a TDS certificate to the deductee as proof of tax deduction. This certificate contains details such as the deductor’s PAN, deductee’s PAN, TDS amount, and other relevant information.
  7. TDS Deposit: The deductor is required to deposit the TDS amount with the government before 7th of the subsequent month.
  8. TDS Return: The deductor is also obligated to furnish periodic TDS returns with the tax authorities.
