Hello All

1. Is dividend on preference shares subject to dividend distribution tax u/s 115-O of Income Tax Act, 1961?

2. Does the definition of dividend u/s 2(22) of Income Tax Act, 1961 covers preference shares dividend?

Dear Mr. Raman,

 

Dividend on prefrence share shall be covered by section 2(22)(a) and hence DDT as per 115O is applicable.

 

Thanks

It is covered u/s 115O of Income Tax

Dear Sir,

Is DDT applicable to preference dividend distributed by private limited companies?

If yes, What is the percentage of dividend?
