Hi, i work for a company where we sell recuritment related services to the clients.

All these years our company was considering sales order vale less service tax to calculate incentives.

Now they consider only the net realization, less tds, less service tax. If the TDS is not deducted by the client then they consider sales order value less service tax only.

They also want the TDS certificate from the client if any deducted.

My question is does TDS which is deducted by the client reduces the sales order value, and is compnay liable to pay tds if tds is not dected by the client.

1. Sales order value is not reduced by TDS.

2. Yes, you need to collect TDS certificates from the clients.

3. In any case the company has to file its income tax return, then whatever tax liability is calculated is paid less TDS deducdted by clients. So if one client has not deducted TDS, it is his headache and not yours.
