Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) and Advance Tax Compliance Assistance
Tax compliance forms an important part of financial and statutory reporting. Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) and Advance Tax are key provisions under the Income Tax Act, 1961, designed to facilitate timely collection of taxes and improve compliance.
Individuals, businesses, professionals, companies, and other eligible taxpayers may be required to comply with TDS provisions or Advance Tax requirements based on the nature of transactions and income earned during a financial year.
Mantra & Co. provides assistance relating to TDS compliance procedures, Advance Tax calculations, documentation requirements, return filing support, and other related compliance matters in accordance with applicable laws and professional standards.
What is TDS (Tax Deducted at Source)?
Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) is a mechanism through which tax is deducted at the time of making specified payments such as salary, professional fees, interest, rent, commission, contract payments, and other prescribed transactions.
The deducted tax is required to be deposited with the Government within the prescribed timelines and reported through applicable TDS returns.
What is Advance Tax?
Advance Tax refers to the payment of income tax in installments during the financial year instead of paying the entire tax liability at the end of the year.
Advance Tax provisions generally apply where the estimated tax liability exceeds the threshold prescribed under the Income Tax Act.
Timely payment of Advance Tax helps taxpayers comply with statutory requirements and avoid applicable interest provisions under the Act.
