Hi all,
I have one query regarding TDS, I explain it through the Example, please help me.
A Ltd (Courier Co.) provides a courier service to B Ltd of Rs.30000/-. At time of payment B. Ltd deduct the TDS @ 2.06% and make a payment of Rs. 29382/- (30000-618). So Entry for the receipt of payment in the books of A Ltd is :-
Cash / Bank A/c 29382
TDS (Assets) 618
To, B Ltd 30000
So, my question is the TDS which appeared in Assets Side, till what period it will appear in Assets side in Balance Sheet?
& how we recovered TDS & what will be the entry for the same?
Please also tell me what is Lower TDS certificate? & there is any rate specified in law for Lower TDS?
Please reply me through email : purviva @ yahoo.co

TDS appears in assets side can be adjusted from Income-tax if anypayable otherwise the same will be refundded from the Income-Tax Deptt. after filing of Income-Tax return after the close of financial year. Suppose If we received refund of TDS from the Income-Tax Deptt. then we made the following entry in our books
Bank A/c Dr.
TDS A/c Cr.
Interest A/c Cr
(Int.if any allowed by the Deptt.)
2. For lower rate of TDS:- If we want that paying party deduct our TDS at less rate, then we have to apply to Our Income-Tax officer for lower rate of deduction of tax . If Income-tax Officer agree with out application, then he issue a certificate u/s 197 of the Income-tax Act,1961 and wherein he mention the rate of TDS to be deducted. A copy of the said certificate is to be sent to the party concerned from we receive the payment.
