Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) is more than just a regulatory requirement—it’s a core component of responsible financial management for any business in Kerala. From employee salaries and contractor payments to rent and professional fees, every eligible transaction must go through a precise process of deduction, deposit, and documentation. Missing a step can lead to hefty penalties, compliance issues, and reputational damage.
That’s where OurTaxPartner.com comes in. We offer complete, end-to-end TDS solutions designed for small businesses, medium enterprises, and large corporate houses across Kerala. Whether you’re just starting out or managing complex multi-departmental payments, we ensure full compliance—from the moment tax is deducted to the time it’s reported and reconciled with the Income Tax Department.
Why TDS Compliance is Critical for Kerala Businesses
Every business in Kerala that makes payments such as salaries, interest, rent, commissions, or contractual fees above specified limits is required to deduct TDS at applicable rates and remit the same to the government within a fixed timeline. This ensures revenue collection at the source and supports the national tax framework.
Non-compliance or delays in TDS payments or filings may result in:
- Disallowance of expenses under Income Tax Act
- Penalties and late filing fees (Sections 234E and 271H)
- Loss of trust among vendors or employees
- Show cause notices and legal proceedings
Having a reliable TDS partner ensures peace of mind, operational efficiency, and long-term tax planning benefits.
Our End-to-End TDS Services Include
At OurTaxPartner.com, we manage the complete TDS compliance cycle for your business in Kerala:
1. Identification of TDS Applicability
We analyze your payment types to identify whether TDS provisions apply under various sections like 192, 194C, 194J, 194I, 195, etc. This ensures that no liability is missed and all rules are adhered to.
2. TDS Deduction Calculation
We compute the exact amount of TDS to be deducted from each payment based on current income tax slab rates and applicable exemptions. Our system ensures error-free calculations, even across large transaction volumes.
3. Timely Deposit of TDS with the Government
Our team generates TDS challans (Form ITNS-281) and ensures payments are made to the Central Government treasury within due dates, avoiding penalties and interest charges.
4. Filing of Quarterly TDS Returns (Form 24Q, 26Q, 27Q)
We prepare and file your quarterly TDS returns accurately using the TRACES portal and NSDL-compliant software. We handle all forms including:
