20 July 2010 Please also note Interest on loan is covered to TDS u/s 194A of the Income tax Act. However, as per Sec.194A(3)(iii), interest paid to any banking company to which Banking Regulation Act, 1949 applies is not subject to tax deduction. Thus, any interest on car loan obtained from banks are not subject to TDS.

21 July 2010 194A doesn't apply to individual/HUF unless their total sales, gross receipts or turnover from the business or profession carried on by him exceed the monetary limits specified under clause (a) or clause (b) of section 44AB during the financial year immediately preceding the financial year in which such interest is credited or paid.

So, if the individual/ HUF is not in any business/ profession, they need not worry for deducting TDS
