TDS on cancelled invoices: not payable if no payment; adjust with customer or claim refund and recognise recoverable asset.
TDS on a cancelled invoice where no payment occurred is not applicable as a tax charge; accounting requires either adjustment with the customer-resulting in a reduced receivable or an advance as the customer claims refund in its income tax return-or the supplier claiming the TDS refund in the relevant return and recognizing the recoverable amount as a current asset until received.
