Due to oversightness in TDS payment double payment has made for TDS on rent in last financial year . During F.Y. 2008-09 payment has already made for TDS on 7th March 2009 for February month, but the same payment has again made on 7th May 2009.

Kindly suggest how we can adjust the same in our books of accounts and claim refund for excess payment of TDS.

Sir,

I am a CA Final student. I have entered into a contract for doing accounting works, taxation etc for the years 2007-2008 and 2008-2009, which is clearly mentioned in the MOU in company's official letter head signed by a Director on Company's behalf, with a construction company and they failed far before the current recession due to mismanagement. They were paying me part payments towards contract amount, a fixed sum, upto December 2008. Thereafter no payments made. My contract period ended on 31.03.2009. Now more than half of the amount is due from them. Now the construction works are taken over by some other person who had acquired major shares in this company joined as Managing Director. For ease of usage, I'm calling it as "New Company". Now what the previous company says is 'Your work is related to the stage of progress of construction and construction is only half the way and your payment will be half of the contract amount already agreed. My stand is why I should lose when they failed due to their own mistakes. Now what I did is I told them It will not be possible for me to hand over the works already done and work further for which they are not paying. The work site was laid down till May First week 2009 and I was not able to work in the office. Now the new company has their own accountant and staff and is not willing to employ me further. But I have completed the entries upto which the work site was functioning. I had applied for the Accounting Technician Certificate from the Institute. Then whether I'll be eligible to apply a lien on the works I have done like auditor's lien? All the works are lying with the office of the company. But I have not revealed the security password for the works I have done. It's a private limited company. They have not filed audited accounts for the year ended on 31 March 2008 for reasons beyond my control. Now whether I can exercise lien (by not revealing password) over the works I already done? Is my stand right? Whether there is any solution for this? The new company is willing to pay me the sum since they want opening balances. But they'll be deducting from the consideration due to the old company from them, for which the old company is not willing to. Please help

Is it necessary that the new residential property bought should be in India? If it is purchased in Foreign Country,Exemption allowable or not?

All the other conditions fulfilled.

Please Reply. Advance Thanks..

Suppose a person books a house,which is under construction and the possession will be given in DEC. 2010. There is an agreement to sell. (Down payment for booking being Rs 4 lacs).

Now, till DEC. 2010, the person stays in a flat from 1st April 2009 to 30th Nov.2010, which is hired by him (rent being Rs.10,000 /- p.m.) and the company pays Rs.12,000/-. p.m. as HRA.

Loan from bank (Rs 24 lacs) is taken on 1st Oct. 2009 @ 10% p.a.

1) How the Total Income will be computed for A.Ys. 09-10 and 10-11 ? (Assume salary is Rs. 35,000/- p.m.).

2) Also, if in the case of the flat taken on rent, the deposit amount of Rs.30,000/- and rent is paid in cash, can the benefit be claimed in IT (is it sufficient to show the agreement) ?

Sir,

As per sec 40(a)(ia)

Any interest, commission or brokerage, rent,royalty,fees for professional services or fees for technical services or contract money which is PAYABLE, to a resident
on which tax is deductible at source under Chapter XVII B and such tax has not been deducted or, after deduction, has not been paid during the pervious year, or in subsequent year before the expiry of the time precribed under section200(1), shall be disallowed as a deduction in computing the income from business or profession.

My quary is that if the expenses is actully paid during the financail year without deducting Tds then also Sec 40(a)(ia) is applicable.

Hi friends,
