TDS Deducted On Regular Rates

Dear Friends,
Recently Govt has reduced the TDS rates due to COVID 19. But, I deducted and paid old rates;
2% for Contractors, 10% for Rent & Professional Fees, 5% u/s 194LC. Now, how do I manage this?

Quick Summary
This discussion addresses a common issue where TDS was deducted at older, higher rates before the government announced reductions due to COVID-19. The advice given is that excess TDS can be adjusted against future payments to the same deductee. It's also clarified that the reduced rates apply only to payments made to residents, excluding sections like 194LC which pertain to non-residents.

The notified rates will be from 14.05.2020.
Hi Mohanraj,

Yes. Govt has reduced the TDS rates from 14th May, 2020 to 31st March, 2021.

You can adjust the excess TDS against next transaction made to a particular deductee.

Also it is important to note that TDS rates has been reduced for payment made to resident, So 194LC is out of picture. Since it is payment made to non resident. So reduced TDS rates will not applicable for 194LC
Could you please share me new applicable rates
25% reduction
Say if it is 10% existing then 25% of it is 2.5 so the new rate is 10-2.5= 7.50
