TDS means tax deducted at source. If tax is deducted from assessee's income and deposited in the Govt. account, its journal entries will be in the books of company. For example ABC company used the service of MR. N person. Now, ABC company will pay the amount of MR. N person. If TDS will apply as per income
tax law, ABC will deduct TDS and net amount will pay to Mr. N person. At that time following journal entries will be passed in books of ABC company and Mr. N Person.
In the Books of ABC Company
1. When company pays the money and deduct the TDS.
Explanation of Above Entry with Example : Suppose, ABC have to pay Rs. 1,00,000 pay rent to Mr. A person. Suppose, it TDS is Rs. 5000. Now, the net liability of Mr. N person will be of Rs. 95000. and TDS liability will be Rs. 5000 because both amount is payable to different persons. So, Mr. N person account will be credited with Rs. 95000 and TDS account will be credited with Rs. 5000. Because total Rent is the indirect expense, so Rs. 1,00,000 will be debited. Company will follow the law and total amount will be divided between assessee and govt.
Before Actual Payment to Creditor for expense and TDS, both will be shown in the liability side.
Liability Side of Balance Sheet
2. When Payment is done to Creditor for our expense and TDS, then following entry will be passed.
In the Books of Mr. N Person (Assessee)
1. When his earning from Rent is due.
2. When Assessee Gets net amount of his rent
3. When Govt. Refunds the TDS to Assessee
When Mr. N Person fills his regular income tax return and he refunds some of his TDS. Suppose, it is the Rs. 1500
{ Important Note : Payment of income tax is the personal liability of any person. So, we do not record the income tax of an individual assessee. But when TDS is deducted it just like drawing of person. So, it will be debited. When we get the refund of TDS, it is just like increase of capital because rent was our earning. If we deduct TDS, it means, it is decrease of our earning and capital. Refund is just like increase of our earning and capital. }

ReplyDeleteIn the above situation assume that ABC Ltd. Has already a debit balance Rs.100000 to the person to whom it pay the rent, and while passing entry for rent the account will be credited for Rs.95000(net of TDS).then the debit balance become Rs.5000(TDS amount), but actually there is no such liability for credit because we pay TDS behalf of the same person. How to deal with the situation.
