Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the applicability of Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) for a business that falls under tax audit (Section 44AB) for the first time in FY 2020-21, having had a turnover of ₹2.56 crore. The previous year's turnover (FY 2019-20) was only ₹40 lakhs, under Section 44AD. Experts advise that TDS deduction obligations typically commence from the financial year following the first audit, meaning TDS should be deducted from FY 2021-22 onwards in this specific case.

TDS IS TAX DEDUCTED AT SOURCE.
TAX AUDIT IS DIFFERENT.
In case of Individual if his turnover exceeds Rs 1,00,00,000 in preceding FY then required to deduct tax in the following FY. In your case since the turnover was 40 lacs no need to deduct tax in FY 2020-21 but he needs to deduct tax from FY 2021-22...

Thank you for the time you took to answer my query.

The taxpayer will be liable to deduct TDS from FY 2021-22 onwards because his accounts were audited for 1st time in FY 2020-21
