WHETHER SECTION 194IB of INCOME TAX ACT IS APPLICABLE?


This query is : Resolved 

Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the applicability of Section 194IB of the Income Tax Act concerning TDS on rental payments. The key question is whether a tenant paying exactly £50,000 per month is required to deduct tax. The consensus is that Section 194IB(1) applies to rent payments exceeding £50,000 per month, meaning it is not applicable in this specific case.

13 November 2020 I am an Tenant (Individual under INCOME TAX ACT) paying rent of exactly Rs.50,000/- per month. As Sec.194IB makes it mandatory for tenants to withhold taxes on rental payments, over and above Rs.50,000/- p.m., am I still required to deduct TDS @ 5% for F.Y. 2019-2020?

13 November 2020 Yes, it's applicable now'.

15 November 2020 Not applicable per 194-IB (1) since rent is not exceeding Rs. 50,000/- per month.

15 November 2020 Agree with Mr Chakrapani Warrier's reply.
