These provisions are essential components of the Indian tax system that help ensure timely tax payments and improve compliance. Our expert team offers assistance with TDS and TCS-related matters, ensuring that your business adheres to the relevant tax regulations while optimizing its tax obligations.
What is TDS (Tax Deducted at Source)?
TDS is a system under which tax is deducted at the source of income before the payment is made to the recipient. It is applicable to various types of payments such as salaries, interest, rent, professional fees, and more. The person responsible for making the payment deducts a certain percentage as tax and remits it to the government on behalf of the recipient.
What is TCS (Tax Collected at Source)?
TCS is a tax collected by the seller from the buyer at the time of sale of certain goods and services. This provision applies to specific transactions, such as the sale of scrap, liquor, timber, or other notified goods, where the seller collects tax from the buyer and deposits it with the government.
