17 April 2013
If TDS is not deducted in current previous year and the tax is deducted in any subsequent year, the expenditure will be deducted in the year in which TDS will be deposited by the assessee with the Government.
Thus X ltd is eligible for deduction of expenditure in the AY 2014-15
17 April 2013
If X Ltd can show the evidence that Mr. A has shown the above commission income and paid his tax liability completely, the expenditure will be allowed to X Ltd.

In my view X will be eligible for deduction on expenses paid to A, only in AY 2014-15 because he will be deemed to have deducted and paid the tax in FY 2013-14, being the year in which return is filed by A.
