Regarding **TDS on ICD (Inter Corporate Deposit) interest** paid retrospectively, here’s what you need to know:
---
### Situation:
* ICD was taken from promoters last year.
* No interest was paid last year due to low profits.
* Now, during the current year, you want to pay interest *for the previous year’s period* (retrospective interest payment).
---
### TDS Implications:
1. **TDS is deductible when interest is paid or credited**, whichever is earlier (Section 194A).
2. Since interest was not credited or paid last year, **no TDS was deductible then**.
3. Now, when you are paying the **interest for the earlier period in the current year**, the payment/credit is happening *this year*, so **TDS must be deducted now on the full interest amount being paid, including retrospective interest**.
4. **Failure to deduct TDS may lead to disallowance under Section 40(a)(ia)** and interest/penalty on late deduction or non-deduction of TDS.
---
### Key Points to Remember:
* Even if the interest relates to past period, the moment you pay or credit the interest, TDS applies.
* Deduct TDS @ 10% (if promoters are individuals/HUF, else 30% if promoter is a company or others), unless the promoter has submitted PAN or applicable lower/nil deduction certificate.
* Deposit TDS timely and issue TDS certificate to promoters.

### Summary:
| Scenario | TDS Treatment |
| ------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------- |
| Interest not credited/paid last year | No TDS deducted last year |
| Interest paid now (including retrospective) | TDS deductible on entire interest amount now |
