Hi Guys
This is Ravi Verma, in this article, I will tell you how to file a NIL TDS return online.
Let’s start,
- What is TDS?
Its full name is Tax Deducted at Source, According to the Income Tax Act, 1961, every individual or organization is liable to pay taxes if their income is above a certain threshold.
When the salary of a person exceeds the limit prescribed by the government, then TDS is required to be deducted from the income of that salaried person.
- Why is TDS necessary?
Any person who resides in India has to pay tax to the Indian government and TDS is a direct tax, when the income of an Indian crosses the limit then he has to pay tax to the government.
If a person does not pay tax to the government, then notice can be issued to take legal action against him and the government can also impose a fine on him.
