Quick Summary

This discussion clarifies the correct TDS deduction date for rent payments. Generally, TDS should be deducted on the earlier of the expense incurred or payment date. If rent is paid on the 5th of the month, TDS should ideally be deducted on the 5th, even if the booking occurs later. Failing to deduct on the correct date could lead to penalties and increased interest charges.
