TDS Limit: The Finance Minister has made several changes in the TDS limit, which will benefit insurance agents, people investing in the stock market, people running brokerage firms and people providing technical services.
TDS Limit: In the General Budget 2025, the Modi government has made many changes on the TDS front, which is very important to understand closely. The government has increased the income limit earned from rented property from two and a half to six lakhs annually, but it is worth noting that a monthly limit of Rs 50 thousand has also been imposed in it. On the other hand, the Finance Minister has also made other changes in the TDS limit, which will benefit insurance agents, people investing in the stock market, those running brokerage firms and people providing technical services.
No TDS on annual rental income of Rs 6 lakh
CA Vineet Rathi says that people are making some mistakes in understanding the system of deducting TDS on rental income. People think that if they get Rs 6 lakh annually as rental income, then TDS will not be deducted on it. In a way, this is correct, but if there is a payment of more than Rs 50,000 per month, then TDS will have to be deducted on it. In such a situation, people will say that if they get Rs 50,000 per month, then only this amount will amount to Rs 6 lakh in a year.
This needs to be understood technically. Actually some properties are not taken for a year. Now if you rent out any of your properties for eight to ten months, the rent is fixed at Rs 6 lakh.
If the rent of Rs 6 lakh fixed for 10 months is divided into 10 installments, then the property owner will get a rent of Rs 60 thousand every month. In such a situation, TDS will be deducted if the monthly rent is above Rs 50 thousand. Therefore, it will be important to keep in mind the monthly limit while paying the rent.
