27 May 2020 You need to have TDS deducted at the time of creating provision for March ending if the amount and suppliers/vendor details were to have been ascertained with reasonable accuracy.

Salary TDS Deductions needs to be made taking into account whole year Income Tax Payable and as per deductions/claims/rebates as applicable and as declared.

If no provision is taken in March 2020, Professional Fee TDS needs to be deducted @ 10% and reduced rate will apply based on date of booking of expenses or date of invoice whichever is earlier taking into account the reduction rate is effective from 14th May 2020 to 31st March 2021.
