TDS Overview
Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) is a mechanism introduced under the Income Tax Act, 1961, whereby tax is deducted at the time of making specified payments such as salaries, professional fees, rent, interest, commission, and contractor payments. The deducted tax is then deposited with the government on behalf of the recipient.
TDS helps ensure a steady collection of taxes and reduces the burden of paying tax in a lump sum at the end of the financial year.
