Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) applies to solar plant installations in specific cases. When a contractor handles the installation, TDS under Section 194C is deducted at 1% for individuals and 2% for companies. For professional services like consultancy, TDS under Section 194J is 10%. If renting land or space for the solar plant, TDS on rent under Section 194-I is 10% for land and 2% for machinery. Direct purchases of solar panels usually do not attract TDS unless part of a contractor's overall bill. Compliance involves obtaining a TAN, deducting TDS at payment or credit, depositing it with the government, and filing quarterly returns. Individual homeowners typically do not need to deduct TDS unless engaging contractors for substantial amounts. Always consult a tax professional for precise compliance.
