Deduction Of Income Tax At Source (TDS)

No tax deduction at source on interest paid/credited up to Rs.5000/- in a financial year. Income tax will be deducted at source under Section 194A of the Income Tax Act, 1961, at the rates in force. If the depositor is not liable to pay income tax and the interest to be paid/credited in a financial year does not exceed the maximum amount which is not chargeable to income tax, the depositor may submit a declaration in Form No. 15G so that income tax is not deducted at source. In such cases, PAN (Permanent Account Number) must be quoted in Form 15G, else the form is invalid. Senior Citizens (60 years and above) may submit a declaration in Form No. 15H. Section 139A(5A) of the Income-tax Act, 1961 requires every person receiving any sum or income from which tax has been deducted to intimate his PAN to the person responsible for deducting such tax. Further, 139A(5B) requires the person deducting such tax to indicate the PAN on the TDS certificate. In case PAN is not mentioned, the rate of TDS would be 20% as per section 206AA(1) of the Income-Tax Act, 1961. In the case of deposits of Rs.50,000 and above, it is mandatory to furnish PAN.
