Non-Deduction of TDS

• Rate of Interest: 1% pm for a month or part of the month.

Late payment of TDS after deduction

• Rate of Interest: 1.5% pm for a month or part of the month.

Other Points to be noted:

• The interest should be paid before filing of TDS return.
• This amount is to be paid from the date at which TDS was deducted, not from the date from which TDS was due.
• Tax deducted under section 194-IA (TDS on the immovable property), Section 194-IB (TDS on rent) & Section 194M (TDS on a certain sum paid by an Individual/HUF) should be paid to the credit of the Government on or before 30 days from the end of the month in which deduction is made.

Example of Calculation of Interest:

For example, say that you have to deduct a TDS amount is Rs 5000 and the due date of the deduction is 11th January. Say you deduct TDS on 25th May and Pay TDS on 2nd November. Then the interest you owe is Rs. 700/- [(Rs 5000 x 1% p.m. x 5 months) + (Rs 5000 x 1.5% p.m. x 6 months)].

Date for Calculation of Interest

For example, let the due date of TDS payment by 7th June and you have deducted TDS on 11th May. Say you have not deposited TDS by 7th June. Then you will be required to pay interest starting from 11th May and not 7th June.
