Tax Deduction at Source
Tax Deduction at Source (TDS) is a type of income tax collected at the source. It was introduced under the Indian Income Tax Act of 1961. TDS is deducted when an invoice is issued or when payment is made, whichever happens first.
The person making the payment (the deductor) deducts the tax and sends it to the government. The deductor also gives the payee (the deductee) a Form 26AS or a TDS certificate. This form shows all TDS details.
