Meaning of the word ‘Rent’:
‘Rent’ means any payment, by whatever name called, under any lease, sub-lease, tenancy or any other agreement or arrangement for the use of (either separately or together) any
(a) land; or
(b) building (including factory building); or
(c) Land appurtenant to a building (including factory building); or
(d) Machinery; or
(e) Plant; or
(f) Equipment; or
(g) Furniture; or
(h) Fittings
Whether or not any of or all of the above are owned by the payee Explanation (i)to Section 194I. Subletting is also covered.
In case the landlord collects security or advance payment at the time of letting out a building to a tenant on the condition that the deposit will be refunded at the time of vacating the building, such a receipt is not in the nature of income and therefore no tax is to be deducted at source u/s 194I.
However advance rent (not in the nature of refundable) paid is subject to tax deduction.Moreover where any such rent is credited to ‘Suspense Account’ or to any other account shall also be liable to deduct tax at source.
