>> If an account holder’s total cash withdrawals surpass Rs 20 lakh but do not over Rs 1 crore in a fiscal year and he or she is a non-ITR filer, TDS at 2% will be charged from the amount surpassing Rs 20 lakh. If the total cash withdrawal from all post office accounts surpasses Rs 1 crore in a fiscal year, TDS at the rate of 5% will be levied on the amount in excess of Rs 1 crore.

>> That being said, if you are an ITR filer, the regulations are separate. If an ITR filer’s cash withdrawal in a fiscal year surpasses Rs 1 crore. TDS will be levied at a rate of 2% on the amount exceeding Rs 1 crore.

>> To assist Post Offices in deducting TDS, the Center for Excellence in Postal Technology (CEPT), a digital transformation distributor to post offices, has recognized and collected the credentials of such customers for the period 1 April 2020 to 31 December 2020.

>> CEPT will grant the necessary information to the Circle/CBS CPCs. The CEPT will disclose account information, the account holder’s PAN number, and the TDS amount to be withheld.

>> The circle’s head, CPC(CBS), will transfer the credentials to the appropriate Post office and, without delay, initiate TDS deduction from such customers or responsible accounts.

>> TDS will be deducted by the account holder’s relevant Post Office, and the account holder will be notified in a letter of the TDS deduction. The relevant Postmaster will generate and sign a certificate for the TDS amount, which will then be submitted to HO/SBCO together with other SB certificates. Because it is a legal obligation, the responsible postmaster is legally accountable for the deduction of TDS in accordance with the guidelines.




>>TDS non-deduction may result in a penalty or recovery according to the guidelines set by the Department of Post.
