TDS Compliance Exposure Checker

Map TDS sections to your vendor payments, see deductible TDS, and estimate penalty and interest for non-deduction or non-deposit.

Understanding TDS compliance

Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) under the Indian Income Tax Act requires deductors to deduct tax at specified rates from payments such as salary, interest, professional fees, and contract payments. Each payment type is covered by a specific section (e.g. 194A for interest, 194J for professional fees). Non-deduction or late deposit can lead to disallowance of expenses, interest under section 201(1A), and penalty under section 271C.

This tool helps you map your vendor payments to the correct TDS sections, see the deductible amount, and estimate exposure if TDS was not deducted or deposited on time. Use it alongside your books to identify gaps and correct them before assessment.
