17 December 2009 A Ltd. is a US based company and B Ltd. is an Indian Subsidiary of A Ltd. A Ltd. pays salary to the employees of B Ltd. its subsidiary directly into their bank account. Please note that B Ltd. does not pay any salary to its employees. (All the employees are Indian resident)

In this case who is liable to deduct TDS on salaries of the employees?

Also A Ltd. has paid salary to the employees before the incorporation of its subsidiary i.e. B Ltd. Then on what amount TDS is to be deducted and by whom? Also suggest the accounting treatment of salary in the books of B Ltd.
