Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) on PF withdrawals is a critical aspect that employees must understand. According to current rules, TDS is applicable if the PF is withdrawn before five years of continuous service. For withdrawals exceeding a certain threshold, TDS is deducted at 10% if PAN is provided; otherwise, a higher rate applies. No TDS is deducted if the withdrawal amount is below the threshold or if the employee submits Form 15G/15H declaring no taxable income. Understanding these regulations helps in planning withdrawals and minimizing tax liabilities.
