TDS Rates Changes in Budget- 2013

Tax Deduction at Source (TDS) rates for Income under head "Salary" for the financial year 2013-14.

Part II of the First Schedule to the Bill specifies the rates at which income-tax is to be deducted at source during the financial year 2013-14 from income other than “Salaries”. In view of the proposed amendment to section 115A, it is proposed to provide that the income by way of royalty or fees for technical services shall be taxable at a uniform rate of twenty-five per cent; if such income has been received by the non-resident (not being a company) or a foreign company under an agreement entered on or after 1st day of April, 1976. Subject to these modifications, the rates of deduction are the same, as those specified in Part II of the First Schedule to the Finance Act, 2012 for the purposes of deduction of income-tax at source during the financial year 2012- 13.

The amount of tax so deducted shall be increased by a surcharge in the case of—

(i)  every non-resident (other than a company) at the rate of ten per cent. where the income or the aggregate of income paid or likely to be paid and subject to deduction exceeds one crore rupees;

(ii) every company other than a domestic company at the rate of two per cent. where the income or the aggregate of income paid or likely to be paid and subject to deduction exceeds one crore rupees but does not exceed ten crore rupees;

(iii) every company other than a domestic company at the rate of five per cent. where the income or the aggregate of income paid or likely to be paid and subject to deduction exceeds ten crore rupees.
