TDS stands for Tax Deducted at Source. Tax deduction at source (TDS) means collecting tax on income in the form of salary, rent, asset sales, dividends, etc., by requiring the payer to collect income tax due on such income while crediting/paying to the payee and deposit the same to the government on payee’s behalf. Below you’ll find the TDS rate chart, which summarises all the TDS provisions of the Income Tax Act.

TDS Rates in India

The following tables list the various TDS rates applicable to resident and non-resident payments as well as TDS rates on domestic and foreign companies in India. Any person paying income is responsible to deduct tax at source and deposit TDS within the stipulated due date.

Union Budget 2023 New TDS Provisions

Section 194BA – TDS on online gaming

Starting from April 1, 2023, TDS will be deducted on income earned from online gaming. If you win money, the online gaming platform giving you the winnings will deduct 30% TDS on the net winnings. TDS will be deducted when you withdraw the winnings from your account. In case you do not withdraw the winnings by the end of the financial year, then the tax will be deducted on the unwithdrawn amount lying in your account by the end of financial year.

Section 196A – Reduced TDS rate as per tax treaty

When a non-resident earned income from mutual funds in India, the TDS rate was 20%. However, from April 1, 2023, the non-resident can choose to pay a lower tax rate given in the tax treaty by providing a tax residency certificate.

Section 192A – Relaxation for employees without PAN

Starting from April 1, 2023, if an employee does not furnish PAN (Permanent Account Number), they will receive their provident fund balance after a 20% tax deduction. Earlier, tax was deducted at maximum marginal rate (MMR) which would be as high as 42.74%.

Section 193 – Tax deduction on interest from specified securities

Before April 1, 2023, individuals often forgot to report the interest income they earned from specified securities in their income tax returns because TDS was not deducted. Now, starting from April 1, 2023, tax will be deducted from the interest earned on listed securities in dematerialized form. This change will ensure accurate reporting of income in ITR and allow the government to collect appropriate taxes.

Section 194N – Increased TDS threshold for cooperative societies

From April 1, 2023, if a co-operative society withdraws cash, TDS will be applicable when the withdrawal amount exceeds Rs. 3 Crore. This threshold was previously Rs. 1 Crore.

Section 194R – Clarification on TDS deductions for benefits or perquisites

In the 2023 budget, it was clarified that TDS should be deducted on benefits or perquisites, whether they are in cash, in kind, or a combination of both. This rule also applies to Section 28(iv).

New Section 155(20) Credit of TDS in the year of income reporting

If a taxpayer reports income on an accrual basis in one year but the tax on that income is deducted in the following financial year, it can cause mismatch with tax credits. From October 1, 2023, taxpayers can apply for the tax credit in the financial year in which the income is declared in their tax return. The application must be made within two years of the financial year in which the tax credit is reflected.

TDS Rates for the FY 2020-21

Reduction in TDS rates due to COVID-19

The government has provided relief in the TDS rates for the period 14.05.2020 to 31.03.2021, due to the pandemic and resultant lockdown affecting all sectors of the economy. The relief is limited to the TDS rates only and not for the rates where tax needs to be deducted or collected at a higher rate. The benefit of revision applies to only Resident Indians. Hence, Non residents cannot claim benefits of the same.
