11 February 2010 What is the dollar exhange rate to be considered to make the TDS payment before actual remittance take place.

Some are of the view that it should be RBI RATE and other SBI RATE as of booking of liability.

For example month end date date for processing monthly salaries.

Kindly confirm what basis we should adopt to do TDS compliance.
