How it works

The ₹50 lakh line, watched for you

You enter purchase bills as usual. The tracker does the counting.

  1. 1

    Turn it on once

    If your turnover was above ₹10 crore last year, switch on the tracker. Opening purchases for the year come from your import.

    • Turnover FY 2025-26: ₹12.6 Cr
    • Tracker on from 01-04-2026
  2. 2

    Bills count against ₹50 lakh

    Each purchase bill adds to the supplier's total for the year. You get a warning when a supplier passes ₹40 lakh.

    • Shree Ganesh Cables: ₹46.8 L
    • PAN valid
  3. 3

    0.1% kept back on payment

    Once the limit is crossed, the payment screen keeps back 0.1% of the amount above ₹50 lakh, or 5% when the supplier's PAN is not valid.

    • TDS ₹280 on bill of 08-10
    • Challan due by 07-11

What changed in 2026

194Q is now section 393

The Income-tax Act 2025 came into force on 1 April 2026, and TDS on purchase of goods moved to section 393(1). The rule stays close to what you know: 0.1% above ₹50 lakh per supplier, for buyers above ₹10 crore turnover. The labels on challans and returns change.

  • Right label per year: sec 393 for FY 2026-27, 194Q for earlier years, so old and new records both read correctly.
  • PAN checks: a supplier with an inoperative PAN is flagged before October, when the 5% rate would bite.
  • For your CA: a quarterly summary with each supplier's PAN and amount, ready for the TDS return.

Worked example

How 0.1% is worked out

FAQ

TDS questions

More in the help centre.

Is 194Q still applicable in FY 2026-27?

For purchases from 1 April 2026, TDS on purchase of goods sits in section 393(1) of the Income-tax Act 2025. Purchases up to 31 March 2026 stay under section 194Q of the old Act.

Who has to deduct TDS on purchase of goods?

A buyer whose total sales, gross receipts or turnover from business was more than ₹10 crore in the previous financial year, when it buys goods worth more than ₹50 lakh from one resident seller in the year.

What is the rate?

0.1% of the purchase value above ₹50 lakh from that seller in the financial year, or 5% if the seller has not given a valid PAN.

Does TCS under 206C(1H) still apply?

No. TCS on sale of goods under section 206C(1H) does not apply from 1 April 2025. Only the buyer's TDS remains.

Does Moharbill file the TDS return?

No. Moharbill prepares the monthly challan amount and a quarterly summary with each supplier's PAN and amount. Your CA files the return from it.
