On 31-03-07, We made some provisions for professional fees. We deducted TDS @ 5.1% at Rs. 6,00,000/- Now on receiving final invoices party has given invoices of Rs. 5,00,000/- only and current rate of TDS is 10.3% for professional fees. Now, What will be out treatment of TDS on these invoices?
The rate of TDS applicable on the date of credit/payment which ever is earlier is relevant.
You have already credited the party's account on 31.03.2007 and have already discharged your tds liability.
Now on receipt of the final bill, you will not credit the amount to the party's account. Rather you have to debit the account of the party by Rs. 1 lac. Hence there is no libility for payment of tds.
