there is no relevancy of income from other sources.
But, if a salaried person is having a business also and he falls in sec 44AB in the preceeding F.Y. then he will be required to deduct TDS.
But, if a businessman (covered u/s 44AB) is paying rent of his residence then he will also be liable to deduct TDS, lawfully.

### When is TDS on Rent Deduction Applicable for Individuals/HUFs?
* **Section 194I (TDS on rent)** applies **only if the individual or HUF is required to get their accounts audited under Section 44AB** of the Income Tax Act.
* Generally, **TDS deduction by individuals/HUF is mandatory only if:**
* Their **business or profession turnover/gross receipts exceed ₹1 crore (for business) or ₹50 lakh (for profession)** in the preceding financial year\*\*, or
* They are otherwise covered under Section 44AB audit provisions.
* If the individual is **not subject to audit under 44AB**, then **they are not required to deduct TDS on rent** payments.

### How to Deposit TDS if Deducted?
* When TDS is deducted by an individual or HUF, it should be deposited using:
* **Challan No. ITNS 281 (e-payment)**.
* The deductor should also:
* File the TDS return.
* Provide **TDS certificate (Form 16A)** to the deductee.

### About Salaried Individuals:
* If a person is a **salaried employee only**, then:
* They **do not come under the audit provisions (Section 44AB)**.
* Hence, **no TDS deduction on rent is required** by them as an individual.
* If the salaried individual has **business income**, and **their turnover exceeds audit limits**, then TDS deduction becomes applicable.
