Dividend distn.tax rate

Sirs,

 

A company has paid Interim dividend on 01.10.2013. What is the rate of dividend distribution tax applicable?  In some books it is stated as 15% + 10% SC +3% cess for the financial year after 01.04.2013 irrespective of Total Income of the company. Some other IT reckoners say that SC of 5% is applicable only if Total Income of the Company is above one crore and SC of 10% is applicable if Total Income is beyond 10 Crores and SC is Nil if the Total Income is below 1 crore.Which is correct?

For dividend distribution tax, irrespective of the total income of the company surcharge is 10% from 1.4.2013. Therefore effective rate of dividend is (15+10%SC+3%cess) 16.995%.
