Individual Challenges TDS Demand Notice for Non-Deduction on Small Amounts; No Exemption Found for Under Rs. 10 An individual received a demand notice from the TDS department for short deduction of TDS, as their quarterly return for 1,000 employees included amounts less than Rs. 10, which were not deducted. They sought clarification on any provision that exempts TDS deduction for amounts under Rs. 10. Responses indicated that there is no specific section allowing for non-deduction of TDS for such small amounts, and tax must be deducted and deposited regardless of the amount, as no rounding-off provision applies.
