A manufacturing company is seeking clarification on TDS deductions for directors. They deduct TDS on monthly salaries and an additional 10% TDS on interest paid for unsecured loans. The issue arises because the total TDS liability (salary income + loan interest) exceeds the directors' monthly salary, particularly in March. The advice given is that the 10% TDS on interest is sufficient, and any remaining TDS on salary can be deducted from the March salary. If the total TDS still exceeds the March salary, the balance TDS should be remitted as an advance and recovered from the April salary.
