Earlier Section 194N · Codes 1064, 1065

From 1 April 2026, TDS on cash withdrawals from bank or post office accounts is deducted under Section 393(3), Table Sl. No. 5, of the Income-tax Act, 2025. It was earlier deducted under Section 194N of the Income-tax Act, 1961.

Calculating TDS under Section 393(3) Sl. No. 5

TDS on cash withdrawals depends on the total withdrawn in the tax year, so it is not a fixed percentage of one withdrawal. The complete TDS rate chart lists every payment.
