TDS (Tax Deducted at Source) प्रमाणपत्र जमा न करने पर द्विगुणित भुगतान
Definition
Service vendors in India face a critical cash-flow penalty under TDS rules. If a customer deducts TDS but fails to submit the TDS certificate to the vendor within 30 days of issue, the vendor can demand payment of the full TDS amount from the customer again. This creates a 'double-pay' scenario where the customer pays TDS twice—once through deduction and once as direct payment.
Key Findings
- Financial Impact: ₹15,000–₹100,000 per invoice cycle (depending on contract value); average 15–20% of service fees if TDS is 10% and delays occur 2–3 times/year.
- Frequency: Per billing cycle (monthly/quarterly); up to 4–6 occurrences annually if certificate tracking is manual.
- Root Cause: Manual TDS certificate tracking, vendor-customer miscommunication, lack of automated notification systems for 30-day deadline.
