Answer Posted / h.r. sreepada bhagi

Tax Deduction at Source (TDS) under any Tax law is also
referred to as withholding tax in some countries. In India
it's mostly referred to TDS under Income Tax Act, 1961. Tax
shall be deducted at source of payment (Either at the time
of credit to the payee's a/c or at the time of payment
whichever is earlier) at the rates prescribed in the Act
under various sections for different nature of payments -
For abstract details, refer Income Tax Ready Reckoner.

Service tax is leaved on the specified services at the
specified rates in the Service tax Act - For more
information refer Service Tax Act.

Both these taxes are payable to the Central Government in
India, by means of prescribed challans.
