Section 195 (6) of Income Tax Act, 1961 as amended by Finance Act, 2015 provides that Form 15 CA/CB is required to be furnished whether payment to non resident is chargeble to tax under provisions of Income Tax Act, 1961 or not.
However, Sl. No. 14 of Explanation - 2 of rule 37BB has specifically excluded "Travel for education (including fees, hostel expenses etc.)" from furnishing 15 CA/CB.
In my opinion, 15CA/CB is not required to be furnished for payment of CFA fees.
