Quick Summary

When an employer pays commission to an employee, TDS is generally deducted under Section 192, as commission is considered part of salary. This means TDS is not applicable under Section 194H. The TDS rate for salary is not fixed but calculated at the average rate of income tax based on the rates in force for the financial year. The employer can adjust any shortfall or excess TDS in subsequent deductions, with the liability arising at the time of actual salary payment.

06 May 2020 In case of TDS on salary, there is no fixed rate of TDS, however, the Deductor / employer is required to deduct tax at source at the average rate of income tax.

‘The Average rate of Income Tax’ is computed based on the rates in force during the relevant Financial Year.

It is pertinent to note that the employer i.e., the Deductor has been bestowed the right to make appropriate adjustment for any type of shortfall / excess in the TDS already deducted in the subsequent TDS deduction.

The liability to deduct TDS arises at the time of actual payment of Salary. It is important to note that the liability arises at the time of payment of Salary and not at the time of accrual.
