What is Form 16?Every Salaried Employee whose total income after all eligible deductions under income tax act exceeds the maximum amount not chargeable to tax is required to get their tax deducted from their employers as per their eligible tax slabs. Thus the employer has to deduct tax at source from income of every employee whose total income is chargeable to tax and has to deposit the TDS so deducted into the Govt. Account. Every Employer has to file TDS return of salary at the end of the Financial year and has to provide the Form 16 to every employee whose TDS has been deducted at Source.
