This discussion addresses the correct TDS (Tax Deducted at Source) rate for payments to weavers. The original query concerns whether to deduct 1% or 5% TDS from April 2021 onwards, particularly for weavers whose income is below the taxable threshold and haven't filed returns for two years. The clarification provided indicates that the 5% TDS rate applies if the aggregate TDS and TCS in the previous two years was Rs. 50,000 or more, and this limit pertains to the weaver, not the manufacturer.
