What is TDS?

TDS stands for Tax Deducted at Source. It is a way for the government to collect taxes from your income in advance.

When someone pays you (like salary, interest, rent, or professional fees), they may be required to deduct a small portion as tax and deposit it directly to the government. This deducted amount is called TDS.

You can later adjust or claim this TDS amount while filing your income tax return.

TDS Calculation Formula

The basic formula to calculate TDS is:
TDS = Payment Amount × TDS Rate (%)

  • Payment Amount: The total sum being given to the recipient.
  • TDS Rate: The applicable tax rate based on the nature of the payment and section (as per the Income Tax Act).
    If PAN is not provided by the recipient, then higher TDS (usually 20%) is deducted under Section 206AA.

Example of TDS Calculation

Let’s say:

  • You are paying ₹1,00,000 as professional fees to a consultant.
  • Applicable TDS rate under Section 194J is 10%.
  • The consultant has provided a valid PAN.
    Then the calculation will be:
    TDS = ₹1,00,000 × 10% = ₹10,000
    So:
  • You will deduct ₹10,000 as TDS.
  • The consultant will receive ₹90,000.
  • You will deposit ₹10,000 to the government against the consultant’s PAN.

Case Without PAN:

If the consultant fails to provide a PAN, TDS will be deducted at a higher rate of 20%.
TDS = ₹1,00,000 × 20% = ₹20,000

  • The consultant receives ₹80,000 only.
