Shahi & Co. — Our Understanding
This section falls under Chapter XVIII which deals with collection and recovery of tax — including TDS, advance tax, self-assessment tax, and recovery proceedings.
Practical Note: TDS compliance is one of the most heavily scrutinised areas in income tax. Failure to deduct, short deduction, or late deposit of TDS attracts interest, penalty, and disallowance of the related expenditure.
