Eg: If an individual in getting only the salary then the company which is paying him salary will be responsible to deduct taxes and remit the taxes to the Government(TDS). Say if that individual is getting income from other sources, he will have to pay taxes for that additional income apart from salary based on the prevailing tax rates.

IT - Any individual or Employee or the Assess will be responsible to adhere and pay the taxes if they are having other sources of income apart from salary.

Income tax refers to a compulsory contribution levied on individual’s personal income as per his/her earning. There are a standard tax slab rates according to which the money gets deducted from your gross income. In other words, it basically refers to the total tax liability on an individual basis his annual taxable income after considering deductions & exemptions determined at the end of Financial Year.
