Income earned from winning KBC Game Show, Big Boss, Nach Baliye, India’s Got Talent, Fear Factor and other game shows is taxable at a flat rate of 30%. Over and above this income tax rate of 30%, Cess @ % would also be levied on this 30% tax and therefore the total tax rate on such winnings from Game Shows comes out to be 31.20%.

Tds will directly cut from your winning prize
it's not related to your regular source of income

TDS @ 30% is deducted at the time of making payment incase of Winning from Lotteries, Crossword, Puzzle, or Card Game or Game of any sort.

I forgot to specify the Section of TDS Ma'am in my reply. It's deducted U/s 194B of the Income Tax Act 1961. Sorry...
