Hi,

"a" represents the rate which specified in the act for each section such as 194c, 194j...etc.

"b" represents the Lower rate of deduction. For example a company/firm had obtained a Lower Deduction Certificate from the concerned Assessing Officer then the deductor have to deduct at that lower only which specified in the Lower Deduction Certificate issued by the Assessing Officer/Income Tax Dept.

"c" represents the Higher rate. presently i.e.20% is applicable for which do not have PAN.

Hope the above info. will serve your query.

aGREE WITH HIM

I agree with the views posted. But i feel 20% would be higher in most of the cases.

Expert opinions are welcome.

Best regards,

Refer to the article march 2011 issue CA jounal -  Is 206AA appilcable for payment salary/wage below taxable limit- (Rs.160000/-)?. Is PAN reuired for those workers/staff whose wage or salary below taxable limit.
