TDS on salary (Sec 192)



Conditions to be satisfied for applicability of sec.192

1	Any payment is made by an employer to his employee.

2	Such payment must be chargeable under the head salaries.

3	Quantum of such payments for the financial year in which such payments are
	made exceeds minimum chargeable to tax.

How is TDS to be done ?

Income from salaries is to be computed on estimated basis at the beginning of each financial year.

Net income tax payable on the basis of estimated salary income should also be calculated.

Such estimation of salary income and net tax liability may require revision periodically, depending upon change in income or investment made by the employee in the form of deposit/subscripttttion/payment.

The net tax liability is to be estimated after considering specific allowable deductions and rebates.

Every month 1/12^th of the net tax liability is required to be deducted.

Stress :

TDS u/s.192 has to be done at the time of payment of salary.

No deduction at source is contemplated u/s.192 in case where a payment towards salary has accrued but not made.
