2. What is Tax Deducted at Source (TDS)
• As per the Income Tax Act, a person (deductor) who is liable to make a payment of a specified nature to any other
person (deductee) shall deduct tax at source and remit the same into the account of the Central Government. The
deductee, from whose the income tax has been deducted at source, would be entitled to get the credit of the amount
so deducted on the basis of Form 26AS or TDS certificate issued by the deductor
• Form 16A will be provided by your CA
• TDS is filed on a Quarterly Basis
4. Points to Remember
Documents required to raise TDS reimbursement claim -
• Please share Form 16A along with the Commission Invoice Number against which you have submitted the TDS
• Also share the credit notes if any issued to you
• The Commission Invoice is shared on your registered email ID by the 5th of every month for the sales made in the last
month. You can refer it to pay the TDS amount
Processing Time -
Once all the details by the merchant for TDS reimbursement have been shared with us, we will validate the details shared
by you and will reimburse the TDS amount within 25 working days, if all details shared by you are found to be correct
In case of any discrepancy, we will update you the same within the next few days
Note - TDS is to be paid only against the ‘Taxable Value’ column in the commission invoice and not to be paid for the GST component mentioned separately
5. Note -TDS amount = Marketing Fees + PG Fee + Logistic Charge (Fee) + Fulfillment Center Charge (if applied) – Credit note amount (if any issued)
Points to Remember
The following rates are applicable for TDS submission-
1. Marketplace Marketing Fee @ 5% (Under Section 194H - Income Tax Act)
2. Marketplace PG Fee @ 5% (Under Section 194H- Income Tax Act)
3. Marketplace Logistic Charge (Fee) @ 2% (Under Section 194C- Income Tax Act)
4. Fulfilment Center Services @ 2% (Under Section 194C- Income Tax Act)
In whose name will TDS be filed?
You need to file the TDS on behalf of Paytm e-commerce (as mentioned on the commission invoice) instead of one97 communication
In case the TDS amount* does not match the details available in our system, kindly share the correct TDS certificate along with the correct
Commission Invoice Number to process the reimbursement. In short, the TDS Amount calculated must match the Amount mentioned in the
TDS Certificate for releasing the Reimbursement
Ensure that you exclude the credit note amount from the TDS amount (if any credit note issued to you)
