17 April 2009 TDS - Tax Deduction at source - when income is being paid the payee will deduct the tds.

TCS - Tax collected at source - the purchaser will collect tax at the time of purchase of certian items such as wood, alcohol etc.,

18 April 2009 TDS is a measure, in which persons who are making payment of income to any other person are responsible to deduct tax from such income (at specified rates) and pay only net amount. Tax so deducted (called TDS) shall be deposited with the Government’s treasury within the stipulated time.
