Hello Members,

In one of the client case, he is partner at different firms. In one of the firm, the interest given to him on his Capital is consider as infusion of Capital since they had missed deducting TDS on the same.

Now when we are filing his personal ITR, how do we consider the interest on this Capital,

Shall we show it as Interest on Capital and offer it for Taxation - by doing that, this will differ from the treatment as shown in the firms ITR.

or Should we exclude this since its not shown in personal ITR also and treat it in same manner as treated in Firm.

Regards

Quick Summary

This discussion explores whether interest paid to a partner on their capital should be treated as a capital infusion, especially when TDS was missed. The consensus is that interest on capital is not a capital infusion. While a new TDS rule is coming into effect from April 2025, for the current assessment year, partners should declare this interest income in their personal ITR and offer it for taxation, even if it differs from the firm's treatment.

For AY 2024-25, No TDS is to be deducted by partnership firm on salary or interest paid or credited to partner.

From April 1, 2025, Section 194T of the Income Tax Act will require partnership firms and Limited Liability Partnerships (LLPs) to deduct Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) at a rate of 10% on various payments made to partners, including salary, remuneration, commission, bonus, and interest, when the total amount exceeds ₹20,000 in a financial year. This marks a significant change in tax compliance for partnership firms, as previously there was no TDS obligation on such payments.

So, while filing his personal ITR, do consider the interest on this Capital, & offer it for Taxation.
