When should TDS be Deducted and who is Liable to Deduct?

• If you are making any sort of payment specified under the Income Tax Act, then TDS will be deducted at the time of these payments. However, no TDS will be deducted if you are an individual or Hindu Undivided Family (HUF), and your books are not required to be audited.
• In case of rent payment by an individual or HUF member, where the amount payable exceeds Rs.50,000, then a TDS at 5% will be deducted even if your books are not liable for a tax audit. You will not be required to apply for a Tax Deduction Account Number (TAN) if you are liable to have TDS deducted at 5%.
• If you are a working professional then your employer will deduct TDS as per the applicable income tax slab rates. The bank with whom you hold a working account will deduct TDS at 10%. However, if they do not have your PAN details, then TDS at 20% will be deducted. For the majority of payments, TDS rates are set in the Income Tax Act the payer deducts TDS as per the rates applicable.
• You will not be required to pay any tax if you submit your investment proofs to your employer and your total income that can be taxed is below the total taxable threshold. Thus, no TDS will be deducted in this case. You can also submit Form 15G and Form 15H to the bank if the total taxable income is below the total taxable limit. The bank in this case will not deduct any TDS on your interest income.
• In case you failed to submit the investment proof to your employer and the bank deducted the TDS, you can file a return and claim a refund of it, provided your total taxable income is below the total taxable limit.
