Considering the consecutive holidays owing to the festive season and weekend during the first week in the month of October, 2014, the Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT) has issued an order to extend the last date of deposit of tax deducted at source/tax collected at source during the month of September, 2014 from 7th October, 2014 to 10th October, 2014 without entailing any consequential interest.

However, the due date for filing of TDS/TCS statements for the 2nd Quarter of the F.Y. 2014-15 shall remain the same.

TDS/TCS deposit deadline extended for September deductions, permitting later payment without consequential interest; statement filing date unchanged. The due date for deposit of tax deducted at source and tax collected at source for September 2014 is extended to a later date in October 2014 because of consecutive holidays, with the extension granted without consequential interest; the deadline for filing quarterly TDS/TCS statements for the second quarter remains unchanged.
