What is TDS Filing?
TDS (Tax Deducted at Source) is a method of collecting income tax at the source of income generation. As per the Income Tax Act, entities or individuals making certain payments such as salary, interest, commission, rent, professional fees, etc., must deduct tax before making the payment and deposit it with the government.
TDS filing is mandatory for employers, companies, and individuals who deduct tax at source. Filing must be done quarterly through e-filing portals, and delays can attract heavy penalties.
