Goods and Services Tax (GST)
Goods and Services Tax (GST) is a comprehensive and unified tax levied on the supply of goods and services throughout the entire value chain, including imports. It aims to streamline the Indian tax system by replacing multiple indirect taxes, such as VAT, service tax, and excise duty, with a single, consolidated tax. GST was introduced to foster a more transparent, efficient, and business-friendly tax environment. Since its implementation in July 2017, GST has brought about a significant transformation in India's tax landscape, simplifying the complex web of previous indirect taxes that were levied by both the Centre and the States into one uniform tax structure.

TDS
Tax Deducted at Source (TDS)
Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) is a crucial mechanism within the Indian tax system, enabling the collection of income tax at the point of transaction. It involves the deduction of tax by the payer (deductor) from the payments made to the recipient (deductee) for specific types of income. These payments include, but are not limited to, salaries, interest on loans, professional fees, rent, and commission payments. Once deducted, the tax amount is remitted directly to the government by the deductor, ensuring that taxes are paid in advance and reducing the scope for tax evasion.

At JMK & Associates, we offer an extensive range of TDS services that are specifically designed to simplify the compliance process and ensure the accurate and timely fulfillment of tax obligations. Our experienced team works closely with businesses to provide customized TDS solutions tailored to meet your unique needs, enabling you to effectively manage TDS deductions, filings, and related processes.

Our team performs regular and thorough TDS reconciliation to ensure that your TDS credits are accurately reflected in both your financial statements and tax returns. We promptly identify and rectify any discrepancies to keep your records consistent and compliant.
4. TDS Certificate Issuance
Issuing TDS certificates (Forms 16 and 16A) is a crucial part of the TDS process. These certificates serve as proof that tax has been deducted at source and are necessary for recipients (such as employees, contractors, or vendors) to claim credit for the tax deducted against their own tax liability. At JMK & Associates, we assist in the timely and accurate issuance of TDS certificates to your employees, vendors, and contractors, ensuring that all legal requirements are met.
