Key Principles
Understanding TDS
Core statutory concepts of Tax Deducted at Source under the Income Tax Act, 1961.
What TDS Means
Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) is a mechanism where the person or entity making a payment deducts tax at the specified rate before remitting the balance to the payee.
Why TDS is Deducted
TDS ensures steady revenue collection for the government throughout the financial year, minimizes tax evasion, and widens the direct tax base.
Who Deducts TDS
Any entity, business, or individual (subject to tax audit criteria) making specified payments like salaries, contracts, rent, or professional fees must deduct TDS.
What Deductee Receives
The deductee receives the net payment along with a TDS certificate (Form 16 or 16A) and can claim this deducted amount against their final income tax liability.
