Other Sources of Income entry in Saral TDS

In this post, we will see Other Sources of Income entry in Saral TDS for an employee. 

What is Other income?

Other Income generally consists of any income received by an employee other than the salary, house property, capital gain, and business. This income can be a recurring income like interest on bank deposit, family pension, rent on plant & machinery, etc. or a non-recurring income like winning a lottery or game show, etc.

For making TDS deduction from employee salary, the employer can consider these incomes during tax computation, if the employee has self-declared these incomes.
