Claim Tax Collected at Source
When you make high-value purchases—like buying a car or booking an international trip—you might notice an additional charge on your bill labeled Tax Collected at Source (TCS). This amount is collected by the seller and deposited with the Income Tax Department under your PAN. It’s a way to ensure that individuals making significant purchases are reporting their income and taxes accurately.
While TCS might seem like an added expense, it’s not an extra tax. You can claim for refund when filing your Income Tax Return (ITR).
