Tax Deducted at Source on Company (Salary)

In the case of a company, the employer deducts TDS from its employee’s salary at an Average Rate. This rate is calculated in the following method:

Average Income Tax Rate = Income tax payable

Employee’s Estimated Income

The rate of TDS ranges from 10% to 30% depending upon the salary earned by the employee and the income tax slab rate they fall under.

This tax is paid by the company to the government while filing the income tax return. This helps in reducing the burden of the employee as tax is paid by the company on their behalf.

This is also beneficial from the point of view of the Government as the Company is collecting the tax from its employees and paying the same to the government while filing their Income Tax Return. It helps the government in the following ways:

Regular deduction and payment of taxes ensures a continuous flow of income to the government.
It helps the government in minimising tax evasion by the taxpayers.
