Hi Gurvinder,
Here’s how you should handle the TDS and billing in your situation:
---
### 1. **Booking the bill in FY 13-14 (even if balance sheet not finalized)**
* **Yes, you can book the vendor bill in FY 13-14** because the payment relates to that financial year.
* **TDS should have been deducted at the time of payment or credit (whichever is earlier) in FY 13-14** as per Section 194C.
* If TDS was **not deducted on time**, you are liable to:
* **Deduct TDS now immediately.**
* **Pay interest under Section 201(1A)** for late deduction/delay.
---
### 2. **Calculation of interest on delayed TDS deduction**
* Interest is charged @ **1% per month or part thereof** on the TDS amount from the date TDS was deductible till the date TDS is actually deducted and deposited.
* Example:
If TDS was deductible on 15.12.2013 but deducted only on 15.03.2014, interest will be charged for 4 months (Dec to Mar).
---
### 3. **If balance sheet is finalized for FY 13-14 but TDS was not deducted**
* The expense and liability belong to FY 13-14.
* You **should not postpone the expense to FY 14-15 just to avoid TDS deduction.**
* You **must deduct and deposit TDS for FY 13-14 immediately** and file TDS returns accordingly.
---
### Summary:
| Scenario | Booking Expense | Deduction of TDS | Interest on TDS Delay |
| --------------------------------------- | --------------- | ---------------- | --------------------------- |
| Payment made & Bill relates to FY 13-14 | FY 13-14 | Yes, in FY 13-14 | Interest applicable if late |
| Balance sheet finalized or not | FY 13-14 | Deduct TDS ASAP | Interest applicable if late |
---
**Important:** TDS compliance is based on the date of payment/credit, not on the finalization of accounts.
---
If you want, I can help you with the interest calculation sheet or TDS return filing process.
Let me know!
