💡 Avoid TDS on FD Interest: Submit Form 121 (new unified declaration from April 2026, replacing Form 15G/15H) to your bank if your total annual income is below the basic exemption limit. Submit at the start of each financial year to each bank separately.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions
What is TDS and who is responsible for deducting it? ▾
TDS (Tax Deducted at Source) is a mechanism where the payer deducts tax before making payment and deposits it with the government. The payer (deductor) is responsible — not the receiver. Individuals and HUFs not subject to tax audit are exempt from TDS on most payments (except rent above ₹50K/month under 194IB). Deducting wrong TDS or missing TDS can result in interest at 1% per month and 30% disallowance of the expense.
Why is TDS 20% when PAN is not provided? ▾
Section 206AA mandates TDS at 20% (or the applicable rate, whichever is higher) when the payee doesn't provide their PAN. This ensures the government can track the income. Always collect PAN before making TDS-applicable payments. Since 2021, Aadhaar-PAN linking is also accepted as an alternative to PAN for some TDS purposes.
Is GST included in the TDS base amount? ▾
No. TDS is calculated on the base amount excluding GST, provided GST is separately shown on the invoice. If a CA charges ₹1,00,000 + GST ₹18,000 = ₹1,18,000 total, TDS at 10% applies only on ₹1,00,000 = ₹10,000 TDS. Net payment = ₹1,08,000. Always ask vendors to show GST separately on invoices — a bundled invoice without GST breakup means TDS on the full amount.
What is the difference between Section 194C and 194J? ▾
194C (Contractor, 1-2%) covers payments for work contracts — construction, manufacturing, supply of labour, transporting goods. 194J (Professional, 10%) covers payments for professional expertise — CA, lawyer, doctor, architect, engineer, management consultant. Technical services (software development, IT, call centers) attract 2% under a sub-clause of 194J. The distinction matters because misclassification leads to underpayment/overpayment and potential penalty.
When should TDS be deposited and what happens if delayed? ▾
TDS must be deposited by the 7th of the following month for all months except March (March TDS can be deposited by 30th April). Late deduction: interest at 1% per month from the date TDS was due. Late deposit: interest at 1.5% per month. Late filing of TDS return: ₹200/day under Section 234E up to the TDS amount. Additionally, 30% of the expense is disallowed under Section 40(a)(ia) if TDS was not deducted at all.
