SIR PLEASE CLEAR THAT I HOW TO CALCULATE THE INTEREST ON LATE AND NON PAYMENT OF INCOME TAX
09 August 2011
Take an example-
Suppose you were supposed to file your return on 31.7.2011. And further suppose that since you want to know about interest calculations U/s 234-A, 234-B and 234-C
you have not paid any advance tax or income tax. Fortunately Bank has deducted TDS of3000 on FDR Interest.
.
Your Tax payable is 18000/- and if you deduct TDS from this - 15000/- remains payable.
.
For delay in filing of return even for part of the month
Interest U/s 234-A
15000*1month* @1%=150
.
Tax payable 15000>10000 , You were liable to pay advance tax also.
.
234B and 234C comes into action.
.
234B becomes applicable from 1.4.2011
to 10.08.2011- As tomorrow or upto 31.08.2011 you will pay tax.
.
Int U/s 234B =15000*5month* @1%=750
.
Till here we have calculated Interest U/s 234A and 234B.
Period covered is after the end of the Previous Year.
.
Advance Tax is the tax , which is payable during the Previous year when Your tax liability exceeds 10000/-.
.
Interest U/s 234C:
Installments of15000:
1.15-09-2010 30% amount must be paid (4500)
.
2.15-12-2010 60% Total amt to be paid(9000)
.
3 15-03-2010 100% Whole amt to be paid(15000)
.
A. Since you have not paid Ist Installment
Interest @ 3% will be leviable on 4500.
(Interest upto 15-12-2011)
4500*3% = 135
(You may reduce from 4500 if you have paid
lesser, If you have paid 5000 here do not calculate Interest)
.
B. Since you have not paid IInd Installment Interest @ 3% will be leviable on 9000. (This is deemed upto 15-03-2011)
9000*3% = 270
(You may reduce from 9000 if you have paid
any amt. If you have paid 5000 here or in earlier quarter calculate Interest on4000 only)
.
C. Since you have not paid IIIRD or the last Installment Interest @ 1% will be leviable on 15000.
(This is deemed from 15-03-2011 to 31-3-2011)
15000*1% = 150
(You may reduce from 15000 if you have paid
any amt. If you have paid 5000 here and 5000 earlier calculate Interest on the balance5000 only)
