Payroll in India is a complex and engaging function, broadly divided into payroll processing and payroll compliance. Income tax is a critical compliance requirement for the payroll department.
Similar to other compliances like Provident Fund (PF) and Employees' State Insurance (ESI), income tax compliance involves computing and deducting income tax from employee salaries and remitting the deducted tax to the Income Tax Department with required information in the prescribed format, known as "filing returns."
