If the bill is from your regular supplier and TDS is applicable on it then u should deduct it from the supplier account and pay it to the Govt. before due date of filing the return of it if March month bill otherwise the full expense will get disallowed. Please not if u think to bear the TDS amount by your own pocket then also it will be disallowed because it will be treated as diversion of income. According to the TDS provision u have to deduct and then pay to the appropriate authority within the the time allowed.
I would like to correct you all. Finance Act 2010 has amended Section 40(a). There will be no disallowance if after deduction made during the previous year for TDS is deposited on or before filing the ROI u/s 139. So there will be no segregation of march and other months

Hello Friends,
In case if we forget to deduct TDS from the party, can we pay the TDS amount from our own pocket in order to make the expense allowable.
You cannot bear the TDS amount out of your own pocket in case u forgot to deduct the TDS amount. You first have to recover it from the payee of the expnese and then you have to remit it to the appropriate authority with in the time allowed.
Under this situation deduct the TDS from the bill and show the TDS amount as excess amount paid to the creditor and in subsequent year set off the excess amount but if no transaction in the subsequent year takes place then continue to show him as a debtor in your books.
