What Is Tax Deduction At Source ?
A person (Deductor) who is liable to make payment of specified nature to any other person (deductee) shall deduct tax at source and remit the same into the account of the Central Government. The deductee from whose income tax has been deducted at source would be entitled to get credit of the amount so deducted on the basis of Form 26AS or TDS certificate issued by the deductor.
Different Types Of TDS Forms Are As Follows:
Form 24Q -TDS on salaries.
Form 26Q – TDS on payments other than salaries.
Form 27Q – TDS on payments made to non-residents.
Form 27EQ – TCS.
Who Will File Return ?
It is the duty of the person who is making payment to someone for specified goods or services to deduct TDS and file TDS return. The specified payment includes salary, interest, commission, brokerage, professional fees, royalty, contract payments, etc. The person who deducts TDS is called deductor and the person whose tax is being deducted is called deductee.
Delays.
After depositing TDS, the challan provided by the OLTAS system takes 2-3 days to be processed. So make sure to deposit TDS at least 3-4 days before the 7th of following month deadline to avoid paying late fees.
Late Fine.
Late filing fees under section 234E As per section 234E, where a person fails to file the TDS/TCS return on or before the due date prescribed in this regard, then he shall be liable to pay, by way of fee, a sum of Rs. 200 for every day during which the failure continues. The amount of late fees shall not exceed the amount of TDS. TDS/TCS return cannot be filed without payment of late filing fees as discussed above. In other words, the late filing fees shall be deposited before filing the TDS return. It should be noted that Rs. 200 per day is not penalty but it is a late filing fee.
