Thanks

no cess shall be deducted......

neither education cess nor higher education cess

nor surcharge.

JUZER and PRAVEEN... i doubt on ur answers...

Coz to my knowledge,, education cess is deductible... i mean, tds is deducted at 10.3% for 194A and 194H... and few other sections too r there, where cess is deducted...

 

Nywz, let other members too clearify this,...

Dear Dhiraj,

 

for your info.

 

Read Section 2(11) of Finance Act No. 2 of 2009 along with section 2(5) and 2(6) of said Act.  

 

For your reference;

 

Chapter II
Rates of Income-tax
Income-tax.
2. (5) In cases in which tax has to be deducted under sections 193, 194, 194A, 194B, 194BB, 194D and 195 of the Income-tax Act, at the rates in force, the deductions shall be made at the rates specified in Part II of the First Schedule and shall be increased by a surcharge, for purposes of the Union, calculated in cases wherever prescribed, in the manner provided therein.
 
(6) In cases in which tax has to be deducted under sections 194C, 194E, 194EE, 194F, 194G, 194H, 194-I, 194J, 194LA, 196B, 196C and 196D of the Income-tax Act, the deductions shall be made at the rates specified in those sections and shall be increased by a surcharge, for purposes of the Union, in the case of every compa­ny, other than a domestic company, calculated at the rate of two and one-half per cent of such tax, where the income or the aggre­gate of such incomes paid or likely to be paid and subject to the deduction exceeds one crore rupees.
 
(11) The amount of income-tax as specified in sub-sections (1) to (10) and as increased by the applicable surcharge, for purposes of the Union, calculated in the manner provided therein, shall be further increased by an additional surcharge, for purposes of the Union, to be called the “Education Cess on income-tax”, calculat­ed at the rate of two per cent of such income-tax and surcharge so as to fulfil the commitment of the Government to provide and finance universalised quality basic education :
Provided that nothing contained in this sub-section shall apply to cases in which tax is to be deducted or collected under the sections of the Income-tax Act mentioned in sub-sections (5), (6), (7) and (8), if the income subjected to deduction of tax at source or collection of tax at source is paid to a domestic company and any other person who is resident in India.

 

Do revert if you are not satisfied.
