Turns out, TDS will help reduce tax evasion risks as the tax is collected at the time of making the payment itself.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The folks at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bajajfinservmarkets.in\/markets-insights\/income-tax\/articles\/what-is-tds.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Bajaj Finserv<\/a> explain it perfectly &#8211;<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201c Assume that the nature of payment is professional fees on which the rate specified for TDS is 10%. An ABC organisation pays INR 50,000 as professional fees to Ms XYZ. In this case, the ABC organisation is liable to deduct INR 5000 and make a net payment of INR 45,000 to Ms XYZ. The INR 5000 deducted by the company will be deposited directly to the credit of the Government\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p class=\"p1\">There\u2019s more.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"documents\" class=\"p1\">What documents do you need for TDS<\/h3>\n<p class=\"p1\">Issue a TDS certificate &#8211; There are two types of TDS certificates that should be issued at the time of filing income tax. These are &#8211;<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><b>Form 16:<\/b>\u00a0This form\/certificate is issued by a company employer\/tax dedicator (person making the payment) which carries all the details of the tax deductions made in that year.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><b>Form 16A:<\/b>\u00a0This is more applicable for freelancers, consultants and anyone who is independent of an organisations payroll.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"eligible\" class=\"p1\">Who is eligible for TDS?<\/h3>\n<p class=\"p1\">Anyone associated with an organisation has books audited every fiscal year and pays income tax is liable for TDS.

Here&#8217;s how you save taxes as a business!\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"file\" class=\"p1\">How to file TDS return<\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\">You can view paid TDS once you download the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instamojo.com\/blog\/revised-form-26as-filing-your-income-taxes\/?utm_source=imblog&amp;utm_medium=interlink&amp;utm_campaign=tax_26as\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Form 26AS<\/a> from the Income Tax Department. To claim it, you need to file Form 27A separately.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">In order to file your\u00a0<span class=\"s1\">TDS return<\/span>, there are few things you must ensure. They are as follows:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"ul1\">\n<li class=\"li1\">Have a valid\u00a0<span class=\"s1\">TAN<\/span>\u00a0(Tax Deduction and Collection Account Number) and make sure it is registered for e-filing. If you are deducting TDS for employees, maintain a TAN. There is a penalty of Rs.10,000 for not quoting TAN. Anyone paying a salary or commission is required to get a TAN.<\/li>\n<li class=\"li1\">Tax Deducted at Source has to be deposited using Challan ITNS-281 on the income tax portal.<\/li>\n<li class=\"li1\">Prepare your TDS statements using <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bankbazaar.com\/tax\/all-about-tds.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Return Preparation Utility<\/a> before validating the same using File Validation Utility.<\/li>\n<li class=\"li1\">Provide bank account details of your company, and ensure that both parties PAN and Aadhar details are entered before you upload your returns using the online verification code.<\/li>\n<li class=\"li1\">You receive a token number or receipt to confirm that returns has been filed<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 id=\"everyone\" class=\"p1\">TDS rules everyone needs to know<\/h3>\n<p class=\"p1\">According to Profitbooks, you need to file tax deducted at source before the due date to avoid penalty and increased fees. Tax dedicated at source must be deposited to the Government before the 7th of the coming month! For example, TDS deducted in the month of September must be paid to the Government in the month of November.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><b>Deduct TDS on time &#8211; <\/b>Deduct tax at the time of payments due. A delay in TDS will incur interest at 1% per month till the tax id deducted. Not paying it will attract interest @ 1.5% per month until the tax is deposited.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s3\"><strong>TDS return filing rules<\/strong>:<\/span>\u00a0TDS returns are required to be filed timely on the 31st\u00a0day of July, October, January, and May during a financial year. Non-filing or filing of return after the due date will attract a penalty fee of Rs 200 per day (up to the maximum amount of tax) till the return is filed.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><strong><span class=\"s3\">Importance of documents<\/span><\/strong> &#8211; The business or individual who makes the payments should have a valid PAN card, along with the PAN details of the payee, else the TDS rates increase!<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><strong>Date for refunds<\/strong> &#8211; Tax refunds are credited to bank accounts of payees in 6 months<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"Understanding\" class=\"p1\">Understanding taxes and GST for small businesses with ClearTax<\/h3>\n<p class=\"p1\">A lot of the information you see here is referred from <span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/cleartax.in\/s\/tds-for-business\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">ClearTax<\/a>,<\/span> a premier tax filing and GST organisation that helps both businesses and individuals with taxes.
