Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions — TDS

Clear answers to common questions about methodology, edge cases, and privacy.

Why is my employer TDS different?

Employers use declarations, proof submission status, payroll month, bonus timing, previous-employment income and rounding rules.

Can I compare old and new regimes?

Yes. Choose auto, new regime or old regime to see the estimated monthly TDS.

Is this the same as final ITR tax?

No. TDS is tax deducted during the year. Final payable or refund depends on your actual return.
