The finance minister has stated that TDS rates will be rationalised in the Budget 2025 giving much needed relief to taxpayers. The limit for tax deduction on interest for senior citizens is being doubled from the present Rs 50,000 to Rs 1 lakh . The FM said, TDS on rent is being increased to Rs 6 lakh.

Rationalise TDS by reducing the number of rates and thresholds above which TDS is deducted. The limit for TDS for senior citizens is being doubled from 50,000 to 1 lakh rupees.

From October 1, 2024 the government has made it mandatory for employers to give benefits of TDS/TCS deducted on non-salary income while computing TDS to be deducted from salary. Adjustment of tax already paid through TDS/TCS on non salaried income while deducting TDS against salary can bring down TDS liability for a salaried employee. This amendment was introduced to reduce the incidence of extra TDS being deducted from salary income. While the law was already implemented, the necessary back end technical infra updation took time.

Amendments introduced to TDS Form 24Q, 26Q and 27EQ

1) Addition of a New Column (388A): A new column (388A) has been added under Annexure II (Salary details) for Form 24Q. This amendment is applicable to statements pertaining to FY 2024-25 Q4 onwards."
