Sometimes it might happen that the payee/ deductee asks you to deduct TDS at a lower rate of TDS or for no-deduction of TDS. In this case, it is the responsibility of the payer/ deductor to ask for a reason for such lower deduction and mention the same while filing an e-TDS Return.
Following are the reasons for the lower deductions of TDS:
- Lower Deduction/ No Deduction on account of certificate u/s 197
