Hi,
TDS on Payment to consultant is covered in section 194J of the Income Tax Act.
Let’s discuss the second part of this question i.e who is required to deduct TDS
As per section 194 J, Every person (Service Recipient) needs to deduct TDS on consultancy charges, except Individual and HUF:
- In case of an individual or HUF carrying on a business: Where his turnover does not exceed Rs. 1 crore during the previous financial year.
- In case of an individual or HUF carrying on the profession: Where his turnover does not exceed Rs. 50 lakh during the previous financial year.
Now let’s see the first part of the question i.e what happens if TDS is not deducted.
Following consequences need to face to the service recipient.
- Disallowance of 30% Expenditure in the year in which it is claimed.
- Interest @1.% per month/part of the month from the date on which TDS was required to be deducted up to the date of actual deduction.
Thanks!

Hi,
The purpose of section 44Ad is to give relief to small assessee from compliance of maintaining books of accounts and annual Audit.
This section is not related to the filing of ITR. It just gives a method of calculation of the taxable income of a business.
So in this case, if the taxable income of a business is less than the maximum amount which is not chargeable to tax then filing of return is not mandatory.
