No. Interest u/s.234A, B, C should be calculated independently. Interest under either of the sections should not be added while calculating respective interest workings.

No

No, it is not to be included for calculating the interest u/s 234B otherwise it will tentamount to payment of compound interest u/s 234C while simple interest is payable u/s 234A, B or C.

Please explan the method for calculating interest U/S.234B and U/s 234C.

Interest u/s 234A is to be calculated if the payment of the tax is after the due date of filing the returns [as mentioned for the particular assessee u/s139(1)] @ 1% per month on net tax payable(after TDS Deduction).

Interest u/s 234B is to calculated if the payment of tax is after the last day of the previous year @ 1% per month on the net tax payable.

 

Interest u/s 234C is to be calculated if the advance tax hasn't been sufficiently paid within the due dates.

Due dates and the amount required to be paid for

Companies

June 15th   - 15% of Net tax

Sep 15th    -  45% of net tax

Dec 15th    -   75% of Net tax

March 15th -   100% of Net tax

 

Other assessees

Sep 15th   -  30%

Dec 15th   -  60%

Mar 15th  -    100%

 

If  the advance Taxes are not paid within the due dates,

then for the deffecient amount interest will be charged at  1% per month

i e ,  3% for all the defeciencies upto march

and for the defeciency in march advance tax has to charged @ 1% only

Hi Hemant

Please find the calculation Below.

Interest U/s 234A( Taken as Return filied in the month of Sep 2008)

Interest = 10217*1%*2=204/-

Interest u/s 234B

Interest= 10217*1%*6Months=613/-

Interest U/s 234C

Interest -Sept- 30% of 10217= 10217*30%*1%*3=92/-

Interest -Dec- 60% of 10217 =10217*60%*1%*3=184/-

Interest - Mar- 100% of 10217= 10217*100%*1%=102/-

Total Interest U/s 234C = 378/-

Therefore Total Interest Payable = 204+613+378=1195/-

WHILE CALCULATING INTEREST U/S234 , THE TAX ON TOTAL INCOME IS THE BASE FIGURE FOR INTEREST CALCULATION . SO INTEREST THAT IS COMPUTED U/S234A OR ANY OTHER INTEREST WILL HAVE NO RELEVANCE WHILE COMPUTING OTHER INTEREST. IN MY FILE I HAD PROVIDED YOU WITH THE PROVISIONS OF INCOME TAX AS REGARDING INTEREST . GOING THROUGH THOSE PROVISION WILL CLESR YOUR CONCEPT FOR INTEREST. THE POINT TO BE NOTED IS THAT HEADS OF INCOME HAS NOTHING TO DO WHILE CALCULATING INTEREST U/S 234. ITS THE TAX ON TOTAL INCOME SDJUSTING TDS AND OTHERS WHILE CALCULATING INTEREST HOPE IT WOULD HELP YOU

No you should not add

pls give the detaild calculation of the interest under section 234A, B , C
