Normally most of the Foreign companies and non-residents to whom payment u/s. 195 is made do not hold Indian PAN numbers.
Please substantiate giving relevant provisions/circulars .....
Mr.Rachit
Yes the provisions of new section 206AA are applicable to all. Please refer to section 195(6) also. A Non-Resident can also obtain a PAN. Please visit the nsdl website.
