Tds on salary - Effect of rebate

This discussion clarifies whether the Section 87A rebate should be considered when calculating Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) on employee salaries. The consensus is that the rebate, applicable for annual incomes under £5 lakh, should indeed be factored into the TDS calculation as it forms part of the overall tax liability. This ensures accurate deductions based on an employee's net tax payable.
