Quick Summary

This discussion addresses a query regarding Goods and Services Tax (GST) Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) on a tax invoice where the purchase price and freight are shown separately. The core question is whether TDS should be applied solely to the item value or to the total value including freight charges. The consensus leans towards deducting TDS on the total consideration amount, excluding only the GST tax itself, which would mean including the freight cost.
