Short deduction certificate

This query is : Resolved 

27 April 2016 Can public charitable trust apply to Income Tax department for short/ nil income tax deduction certificate against
1 interest on saving account & Fixed deposit
2 Rent received from Flower stall, mobile Tower etc...

27 April 2016 Yes,Lower TDS Certificates U/S.197:
Section 197 of the Income Tax Act, 1961 provides for the facility of NIL deduction of tax at source or at a deduction at a Lower rate of tax. To avail of this benefit the assessee whose TDS is likely to be deducted on certain receipts should make an application before the TDS Assessing Officer who has a jurisdiction over his/ her/ its case. The assessee/ deductee concerned may apply for a certificate for Nil or lower deduction of TDS on their receipts in Form No 13 ( sub link). Delays in this matter can be avoided by filing the prescribed form correctly and submitting the required details along with the form itself.

Guidelines for handling issues related to applications received u/s 197: In order to streamline the procedure of handling the applications received u/s 197 and disposing the same in a time bound manner in consonance with the Citizens’ charter, the commissioner of Income tax (TDS) has issued certain guidelines for the Assessing Officers. In a nutshell, these guidelines make it mandatory for the Assessing Officer to dispose of the applications u/s 197 within a time frame of 30 days from the end of the month in which application complete in ALL respect is received. The section 197 strikes a delicate balance between requirement of ensuring cash flow to the taxpayer and realizing government dues at the earliest. Taxpayers are, therefore, advised to file complete details required for processing the application in the first instance itself. This will expedite the issuance of certificate u/s 197.
