What is TDS (Tax Deducted at Source)?
Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) is a system introduced by the Income Tax Department, where the person responsible for making specified payments (like salary, commission, rent, professional fees, etc.) is liable to deduct a certain percentage of tax before making the payment in full to the receiver. The deducted tax is then deposited with the government on behalf of the recipient.
