Tax deducted at source, under the 2025 Act.

Compute the deduction on a payment, and see the provision, the payment code, the threshold applied and what has to happen next.

Deduction on a single payment

From 1 April 2026, TDS on salary sits in section 392 and all non-salary TDS is consolidated into section 393 of the Income-tax Act, 2025. Challans and statements now identify the nature of payment by a four-digit payment code rather than by the legacy 194-series section.

Each payment code carries its own calculation basis. Some provisions deduct on the whole payment, some only on the sum exceeding a threshold, and some depend on an aggregate across the tax year. The additional fields below appear only where the provision requires them. For purchase of immovable property, the payment code awaiting CBDT confirmation is shown as such rather than as a number — the rate, section and threshold are published in full and can be relied on now.

Position stated as at: Tax Year 2026-27 (chart position as at May 2026). Basis: Income-tax Act, 2025 (in force 1 April 2026) read with the Income-tax Rules, 2026; old section numbers shown for reference to the Income-tax Act, 1961. This tool is provided as general reference information and is not professional advice. Rates, thresholds and procedures change; verify the position against the bare Act, the Rules and current official notifications, or ask the firm, before acting on any figure shown.

What this calculator does not do

It computes the deduction on one payment against the threshold for that payment. It does not aggregate earlier payments to the same payee during the tax year, model a lower-deduction or nil-deduction certificate, apply a treaty rate, or address surcharge and cess where those arise on payments to non-residents. Each of those changes the answer, and each is a question the firm is happy to take.
