1. Introduction:
The concept of Tax Deduction at Source (TDS) was there in the
erstwhile VAT Laws. GST Law also mandates Tax Deduction at Source
(TDS) vide Section 51 of the CGST/SGST Act 2017, Section 20 of the
IGST Act, 2017 and Section 21 of the UTGST Act, 2017. GST Council in
its 28th meeting held on 21.07.2018 recommended the introduction of
TDS from 01.10.2018.
Following would be the deductors of tax in GST under section 51 of the
CGST Act, 2017 read with notification No. 33/2017-Central Tax dated
15.09.2017:

2.2 Effective date:
Notification No. 33/2017 – Central Tax dated 15.09.2017 was issued
by the CBIC to enable registration of tax deductors. However,
Government suspended the applicability of TDS till 30.09.2018.
Now, it has been decided that the TDS provision would be made
operative with effect from 01.10.2018. Notification No. 50/2018-
Central Tax dated 13.09.2018 has already been issued in this regard by
CBIC. Similar notifications have been issued by respective State

Q56
I have mistakenly entered rows with the same GSTIN. Should I use the “Delete”
option from the dropdown of “Action” column to delete these rows?
A. No, the incorrect data has to be deleted in the utility manually using the “Delete” button
of the keyboard.
Add and Delete options of the “Action” column are meant for adding or deleting data in
the GST portal. Delete option is required to be ignored while preparing FORM GSTR-7 for
first-time upload, and for the subsequent uploads it can be used only to delete those
particular rows from the already-uploaded data on the portal.
Q57 Can I enter negative or decimal amounts in the offline utility?
A. No, any negative value cannot be entered in the utility. However, decimal values can be
entered. All decimal values would be rounded off to two decimal places. But, total liability
will be rounded off to whole number.
Q58
I've uploaded GSTR-7 JSON File and it was processed without error.

Since return in FORM GSTR 7 for the month of November, 2018 is filed on 28.02.2019
and he discharges his payment liability of tax so deducted by debiting his electronic cash
ledger as well on this date only, therefore, late fee of 80 days (11.12.2018 to 28.02.2019)
have to be paid under CGST and SGST. The amount of late fee will be restricted to Rs.
5000/- (upper limit provided in the Act). Interest has also to be paid for the delay.
Penalty is also payable by a DDO if he fails to deduct the tax in accordance with the
provisions of sub-section (1) of section 51, or deducts an amount which is less than the
amount required to be deducted under the said sub-section, or where he fails to pay to
the Government under sub-section (2) of section 51 [section 122(v) refers]. He is liable
to penalty of Rs.1,00,000/-.
