Supplier Withholding Threshold for Tax Deducted at Source for India

Configure withholding tax amounts and period range deductions at the supplier and supplier site level. Apply these amounts and deductions during withholding tax calculation to comply with complex withholding tax regulations in India.

In India, the tax authority issues certificates to suppliers to deduct tax at rates that are lower than the standard rates, subject to amount and period limits. For example, a supplier can get a certificate to deduct tax at 2% instead of the standard rate of 10% if the total purchase from the supplier is less than 5 million INR for the financial year.  

Business benefits include:

  • Enterprises can calculate TDS (tax deducted at source) in India accurately and benefit from lower deduction rates.
  • Enterprises can reduce setup effort and improve performance with a more efficient configuration.
