Quick Summary
If you win awards or prizes, check whether they are approved by the Government or not. If the award is approved by the Government, you don’t have to pay taxes. If, however, the award is not approved, tax would have to be paid.
Prizes and winnings are always taxable in the hands of the winner. The amount of prize won would be recorded under the head ‘income from other sources’. Winnings from awards and prizes would be taxed at @ 31.2% even if the individual’s income falls in the 20% slab rate.
Thank You, Just one query for clarification.
1. Example of Prizes are - Motocycle, Electronic Gadgets etc
2. Whether Organization is require to reflect in Form-16
Winning is not part of salary so in my opinion it is not required to be reflected in form 16.
