Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) is a method of collecting income
tax in India, where tax is deducted at the source of income
itself, ensuring that the government receives the tax at the
time of payment. If you are a business or individual
responsible for paying certain types of income, such as
salaries, interest, or contractor payments, you are required
to file TDS returns regularly. Filing TDS returns is an
essential part of maintaining tax compliance, and it must be
done within the stipulated deadlines to avoid penalties and
legal consequences.
