TCS in bill and tds applicable

This discussion addresses a common query regarding Tax Collected at Source (TCS) appearing on a bill and in Form 26AS, even when the buyer has already deducted Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) on the same transaction. The consensus is that if TCS has been collected by the vendor and is reflected in your 26AS, you are generally eligible to claim this TCS amount when filing your Income Tax Return (ITR).
