  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Why is the TDS deducted from my salary higher than the previous month, due to which my in-hand salary is also less?">
    Your in-hand salary is less due to a higher TDS deduction applicable on:

    * A bonus payout you received. <br />

      Suppose we do not deduct the increased TDS for a bonus in the current month. In that case, employees must pay the TDS shortfall in the following months. As a result, the in-hand salary also reduces for the following months even if the bonus was only for the current month.

    * Proofs verified and approved.  <br />

      Higher TDS deductions happen on the basis of the proofs approved by your organisation. Ensure you upload proofs that match your declaration amount.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="I am able to view my declared and approved tax deductions on the Tax Deductions page. However, they are not visible on my payslip. Why?">
    If you are unable to view your deductions on your payslip, it is because you have not selected your preferred tax regime. [Select tax regime](/docs/payroll/employees/declarations#select-regime) and confirm selection.

    Your deductions may also not appear on your payslip if you have chosen the new tax regime.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="My TDS deduction is higher in the current month than my previous months. Why?">
    If you do not submit proofs or have submitted proofs lesser than the declared amount, the TDS deduction is higher. Ensure you [submit investment proofs](/docs/payroll/employees/declarations#declare-upload-proofs) before the proof upload window closes.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Are the PF deductions from my salary considered for tax exemptions?">

  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="My CTC has been revised but I cannot see the updated amount. Why?">
