TDS / TCS Rate Chart Tax Year (FY: 2026-27)

      36 Comments on TDS / TCS Rate Chart Tax Year (FY: 2026-27)

With the new Income-tax Act (applicable from tax year 2026–27), TDS / TCS provisions are consolidated into a few sections (mainly Section 393), with rates specified through tables.

Each table entry carries a specific code to be used in TDS / TCS returns, replacing the earlier section-based reporting.

While the prime section remains the same, the relevant table row and its code determine the applicable rate and reporting. The code is to be used for reporting purpose while preparing the TDS / TCS Returns.

The chart below maps the new provisions with corresponding old sections for ease of understanding. As more information and clarifications are still being progressively shared by the Income Tax Dept, we shall keep you updated on these.

    You’ve specified Note 2 & Note 6 in some sections. Such notes are missing in your TDS & TCS chart updated on 26-03-2026. Update it.

      For detailed notes such as Note 2 and Note 6, it is advisable to refer to the relevant provisions and notes as specified in the Income Tax Act / official notifications, as the chart provides a summarized view for ease of reference.

      There was an oversight in Code 1012, which has now been corrected — the applicable rate is 10% and the threshold is ₹5 lakh.

      As regards Codes 1010 and 1007, these have not been included as they are not part of the reference document released by the Income Tax Department.

    Dear Sir
    194C | 393(1) | [Table: Sl. No. 6(i).D(a)] | threshold showing Rs.30,000
    194C | 393(1) | [Table: Sl. No. 6(i).D(b)] | threshold showing Rs.1,00,000

    As per act : threshold limit: (a) ` 30,000; for any such sum; and (b) ` 1,00,000 in case of aggregate of such sums.

    As per my view and humble submission : Kindly refer “and” in the above. The threshold would be Rs.30,000 as single and Rs.1,00,000 as aggregate and not Rs.30,000 for individuals and Rs.1 lakh for other than individuals

    which section will apply for TDS for purchase property from NRI as per new income tax act 2025.
    is section 393(2)- S.N.-12- code-1052 or section 393(2)- S. n.-17- code-1057.please clear my doubt

      This is still a grey area. To our best understanding this section maps to section 393(2) [Table: Sl. No. 17] code – 1057, should apply. However, would suggest to seek professional advise in this matter.

      The rate was inadvertently mentioned incorrectly earlier. It has now been updated — as per the Income Tax Act, 2025, the applicable TCS rate for E-Sale of Scrap [Section 206C – 394(1), Table Sl. No. 4] is 2%.
