Income tax
TDS Rate Finder
Answer one question — what are you paying, and to whom? — and this tool returns the section, the exact rate, whether the threshold applies, and the precise amount to deduct before you release the payment.
Indicative only — not tax advice
This tool is a guide, not a filing. Figures change with every Finance Act and notification; verify the applicable rate and threshold with a professional before relying on them.
TDS is deducted on the gross payment, before adding surcharge and cess on the deductee.
Thresholds in the Act are “exceeding” thresholds: a payment exactly at the limit attracts no deduction, and the first rupee above it makes the whole payment subject to TDS. Sections follow the classic numbering (Finance Act 2025 rates); the Income-tax Act 2025 renumbers these provisions from 1 April 2026.
