7th MAY

ya the law says tht...we should deduct TDS on payment or accrued whichever is earliar....as in your case a salary is accrued on 30th april so the due date of TDS deposit is 7th may...i hope your query is solved...

Dear Expert Friends,

As far as I understand from the book that I  have read, TDS on salaries is to be deducted at the actual time of  payment of salaries.

And accordingly, the TDS is to be deposited wihtin 7 days of  the next month.

In this case, on 7-June.

I request the Expert Friends to clarify.

Dear friends,

TDS is to be deposited with in a week following the month of deduction.(Rule 30)

Incase of salary, TDS is to be deducted at the time of payment.(Sec 192)

So if salary for the month of April is paid in May then due date for deposit of TDS will be 7th June.

Tds to be deposited on or before 7th may.

Tds on salary is deducted on amount payable. as per sec 192 so amount os salalry becomes due on 30th april, hence tds to be paid on 7th may, This is confirmed do not confuse others please.

AAmir is right tds on salary is to be deducted on payment basis and not on due basis.

 

 Every person who is responsible for paying any

income chargeable under the head "Salaries" shall deduct

income-tax on the estimated income of the assessee under the

head "Salaries" for the financial year 2007-2008. The incometax

is required to be calculated on the basis of the rates given

above and shall be deducted on average at the time of each

payment.

From the above section. It is claer that TDS is to be deudcted at the time of payment and not on accrual basis. One more thing is to be considered that is the total expected salary of the employee should exceed the maximum taxable limit...

3.SECTION 192 OF THE INCOME-TAX ACT,1961: BROAD

SCHEME OF TAX DEDUCTION AT SOURCE FROM "SALARIES".

Method of Tax Calculation:

TDS on Salaries is deducted on payment basis only and never on accrual basis... This is what Income tax Act 1961 says ......normally wrong practice is being followed by the accountants by deducting it on accrual basis, which needs to b corrected...
