Section 194J is calculating incorrect TDS. It should be 7.5%, however, it is calculating at 1%. Please advise if there is some config missing at our end.

Hi support66,

The deduction of the Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) depends on the different types of payments. It also consider the nature or residential status of the recipients. Its calculation is based on the threshold defined under the provisions of the Indian Income Tax Act.

Under Section 194 J, any sum paid by way of technical or professional services (exempt up to Rs. 30,000 during the financial year) has a percentage of 10%.

I've added these references that have detailed information on the calculation of TDS:

• How to set up TDS
• TDS Rates: TDS for Assessment Year 2019 – 2020

Don't be hesitant to mention my name if there's anything that I can help. Keep safe!

Good day, @support66.

Thanks for getting back to us. Let me join in this conversation and share more insights about the Section 194J​​​​​​ calculation. 

QuickBooks Online calculates TDS based on the threshold defined under various provisions of the Indian Income Tax Act. 

Yes, you're right. The rate for professional and technical services in Section 194J is 10%. On the other hand, the rate of TDS would be 2% in case the payee is engaged in a call center business operation. 

Please know that the system calculates taxes based on the data you've entered into the program. 

I'd recommend checking this out with your accountant to find the discrepancy. This way, we can adjust and correct your tax calculation.
