A warm welcome to the Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) course by Uplatz.

TDS stands for Tax Deducted at Source. The TDS concepts & rules were introduced with an aim to collect tax from the very source of income. As per this concept, a person (deductor) who is liable to make payment of specified nature to any other person (deductee) shall deduct tax at source and remit the same into the account of the Central Government. The deductee from whose income tax has been deducted at source would be entitled to get credit of the amount so deducted on the basis of Form 26AS or TDS certificate issued by the deductor.

As per the India Income Tax Act, any company or person making a payment is required to deduct tax at source if the payment exceeds certain threshold limits. TDS has to be deducted at the rates prescribed by the tax department. The government uses TDS as a tool to collect tax in order to minimize tax evasion by taxing the income (partially or wholly) at the time it is generated rather than at a later date. TDS is applicable on various incomes such as salaries, interest received, commission received, dividends etc.

TDS is not applicable to all incomes and persons for all transactions. Different TDS rates have been prescribed by the Income Tax Act for different payments and different categories of recipients. For example, payment of redemption proceeds by a debt mutual fund to a resident individual is not subject to TDS but for a Non-resident Indian is subject to TDS.

Uplatz brings this comprehensive training on TDS with the concepts explained in detail. This TDScourse covers each and every section of TDS rules as per India Income Tax laws. The methodology for TDS payments and returns are well described in the TDScourse.
