15CA Applicable or Not

Hello Experts. I need your guidance in the following matter. I have paid rent of ₹.3,00,000.00 to an NRI's Indian Account and Now I have also deposited TDS u/s. 195. Whereas i have not filed Form No.15CA. I want to know whether 15CA is applicable in such case. If so can I file now for 2021-22 all together now? Kindly provide your suggestions.

Quick Summary
This discussion explores whether Form 15CA is required when paying rent to a Non-Resident Indian (NRI) whose Indian bank account receives the funds. While some believe it's unnecessary for domestic rupee account transfers, others suggest filing for safety. The consensus leans towards 15CA not being mandatory if the payment is a straightforward domestic transaction from one Indian account (NRO) to another (NRO), but it would be required if transferring from NRO to NRE.

In my opinion form 15CA is not required as the remittance is made to the Indian A/c of the NRI.
For sefar side you file 15CA . In Rule 37BB of the Income tax act 1962 ,list of payment where 15 CA not required , in that list payment of rent is not available ,

There's no need. It's not an outward remittance, but a straightforward domestic payment from one rupee account to another rupee account (assuming the owner's account is NRO).

If there were a 15CA requirement, usually the Bank would have also asked for it. 

 

If the payment is made from NRO to NRE Account then 15CA will be required. But if transfer is from NRO to another NRO Account then Form 15CA is not required.
