Tds applicability on provision of audit fees

TDS 17841 views 17 replies
Quick Summary
TDS u/s 194J generally applies on audit/professional fees at payment or credit, whichever is earlier. Many views support deducting TDS on year-end provisions if credited to a party; others argue no TDS if no specific payee exists-making it a debated issue.

Also TDS is deducted on the total amount including service tax.

In case TDS is deducted for provision for audit fees for the accounting year 2022-23 then the auditor will raise the bill for the same service in  2023-24. As per rules of claiming of TDS the TDS has to be claimed in the year in which the corresponding revenue is recognised in the books of account. In this case the auditor will recognise revenue in 23-24 then how it can claim TDS for the services not rendered relevant to the accounting year 22-23.?
