Got it! Here's the scoop on TDS under **Section 194H (Commission or Brokerage)** when TDS is deducted in a different year than when income arose:
---
### Can you claim TDS credit in the year TDS is deducted (current year) even if income arose in previous year?
**Yes**, you can claim TDS credit in the year when the tax was actually deducted and deposited (i.e., when you receive the TDS certificate), irrespective of when the income arose.
---
### Why?
* Income tax credit is given based on the **year of deduction and deposit of TDS**, not the year income was earned.
* This is because TDS is a tax deducted at source **on payment or credit**, whichever is earlier.
* So, if TDS is deducted in 2017-18 but relates to income for 2016-17, the credit for that TDS will appear in 2017-18 only.

### How to pass accounting entries?
Assuming you didn’t recognize TDS in books earlier, pass entries in the current year (year of TDS deduction):
```plaintext
1) TDS Receivable A/c Dr
To Commission/Brokerage A/c
(Being TDS deducted on commission/brokerage received)
2) Bank A/c Dr
To Commission/Brokerage A/c
(Being commission received net of TDS)
OR if commission was already recognized, just pass:
TDS Receivable A/c Dr
To Commission/Brokerage A/c
(Recognizing TDS receivable)
```
When you get the TDS certificate or file your return, claim the credit.
