Taxability of money recd. from superannuation fund

1) Calculate income tax only on the Salary received by the employee. The Superannuation Fund amount received is exempt, so show the same as exempt in the Income Tax Return

 

2) The client shall get the credit of the Tax deducted by the employer on the payment of superannuation Fund

 

3) Here in the above case, there was no need to deduct TDS on payment of Superannuation Fund in the event of retirement of the employee (ie. your client).

 

4) Your client will get back the amount of TDS deducted as Income Tax Refund.

 

 

Note :

1) TDS is deducted on payment of Superannuation Fund, if the employee resigns, discharges or is dismissed.

 

2) Whereas the payment of Superannuation Fund in the event if death of employee / beneficiary or at the time   of retirement shall be exempt u/s 10(13) of the Income Tax Act, 1961.
