TDS ON DIVIDEND

This query is : Resolved

Quick Summary

Senior citizens in India can avoid Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) on dividends by submitting Form 15H. This form should be submitted directly to the dividend-paying companies, not your demat account provider. Form 15H is applicable if your total income for the financial year is below the taxable threshold, ensuring you don't have any tax liability.

05 May 2020 Form 15H needs to be filled and submitted to the TDS Deductor (Companies). I do not think you have to submit the same to DEMAT (As they are just holding the shares in Digital Forms) and its the companies who are responsible for deducting TDS on dividends if its exceeds Rs. 5000 in a year . TDS Rate is @ 10%
