TDS and TCS
Accurate deduction/collection and return-filing helps businesses maintain transparent records and streamline cash-flow planning.
Overview
About TDS & TCS
TDS is a mechanism where tax is deducted by the payer at the time of making certain payments — such as salary, rent, interest, professional fees, or contractor payments — before crediting the payment to the recipient. This ensures tax is collected at the source of income.
TCS refers to a tax collection method where the seller collects a specified tax from the buyer at the time of sale of certain goods or services, then remits it to the government. This applies to specific goods or transactions under law.
