This discussion clarifies the process for deducting Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) on rent payments exceeding £50,000 annually. While it's possible to deduct TDS monthly to ease the burden on the tenant, this also necessitates monthly remittance to the government and the generation of Form 16C for each deduction. Although not legally restricted to annual filing, monthly TDS deduction and filing involve significant administrative effort.
Can TDS on rent be deducted monthly (as it becomes a burden on the owner if it is deducted directly yearly once) but remitting to government yearly once? or
If rent is deducted monthly should the payment and 16C should be generated every month-(12 16C's)?
