Frequently Asked Questions

1 What is a TDS (Tax Deducted at Source) Calculator?
It is a tax utility designed to compute the amount of income tax deducted by a payer at the time of processing transactions, such as rent, salaries, professional fees, or contracts.
2 How does the category of transaction affect the TDS rate?
Income tax acts set different rates for different transactions. For example, contractor works (Section 194C) attract $1\%$ or $2\%$, while professional or technical services (Section 194J) attract $10\%$ or $2\%$ based on the exact sub-clause.
3 What is the impact of not providing a PAN card on TDS?
Under Section 206AA of the Income Tax Act, if the deductee fails to furnish a valid PAN card, the payer must deduct TDS at a higher flat rate of $20\%$ (or the specified category rate, whichever is greater).
4 Can I calculate TDS for both individual and corporate payments?
Yes, our simulator lets you select whether the payee is an individual/HUF or a corporate entity, which automatically adjusts rates for sections that differentiate between them.
5 Will my transaction numbers or vendor details be logged?
No. All calculation models execute locally within your device browser sandbox using javascript. None of your transaction sums, categories, or tax details are ever sent to external databases or recorded in remote log files.
