TDS on Salary is compulsory to all the employers. Even, an individual or HUF assesee, which is not liable tor tax audit u/s 44AB should deduct TDS on Salary. However, TDS under other provisions like Interest, Professional Fee, Commission and Rent etc., is not applcable, if the such individual or HUF is not liable for tax audit in the immediately preceding financial year.

SALARY IS THE ONLY EXCEPTION FOR COMPULSORY DEDUCTION OF TAX.
IF U READ ESC 192, IT IS CLEARLY MENTIONED THAT IT IS NOT COMPULSORY TO DEDUCT THE TDS EVEN IF SALARY IS ABOVE THE BASIC EXEMPTION LIMIT!
sOURCE :- BOOK OF CA T N MANOHARAN
Mr.Deep.
According to section 192 of income tax act you have to deduct TDS on salary as per provision. Did they give it has that it is wish of employers or employee to follow the section.
It is mandatory.
But there is no disallowance in case TDS on salary is deducted. This does not mean that it is optional.
