Hi Abhishek

The provisons of TCS on sale of motor vehicles exceeding ten lakh rupees is not dependent on mode of payment. Any sale of motor vehicle exceeding ten lakh would attract TCS @ 1%.

TCS will be applicable only on value of motor vehicle and other cost will not be included.

Thanks

When a motor vehicle is sold for an amount above Rs 10 Lakhs, TCS @ 1% is applicable irrespective of the mode of payment.

When the motor vehicle is sold for an amount between Rs. Two Lakhs and Rs. 10 Lakhs, TCS @ 1% will be applicable only where any part of the payment is made in cash.

CBDT vide Circular No. 22/2016 [F.No 370142/17/2016-TPL] dated June 08, 2016 clarified on issued arise from levy of TCS @ 1% on Sale of Motor Vehicle of Value Exceeding Rs.10 Lacs.

As per section 206C(1 D) , tax is to be collected at source at the rate of 1% if sale consideration received in cash exceeds 2 lakh rupees whereas as per section 206C(1F) tax is to be collected at source at the rate of 1% of the sale consideration of a motor vehicle exceeding 10 lakh rupees . Whether TCS will be made under both sub-section(ID) and (IF) of the section 206C @ 2% where part of the payment for purchase of motor vehicle exceeds 2 lakh rupees in cash?

Answer: Sub-section (IF) of the section 206C of the Act provides for TCS at the rate of I% on sale of motor vehicle of value exceeding 10 lakh rupees. This is irrespective of the mode of payment. Thus if the value of motor vehicle is 20 lakh rupees, out of which 5 lakh rupees has been paid in cash and balance amount by way of cheque , the tax shall be collected at source at the rate of 1% on total sale consideration of 20 lakh rupees only under sub-section (IF) of section 206C of the Act. However, if a vehicle is sold for 8 lakh rupees and the consideration is paid in cash, tax shall be collected at source at the rate of 1% on 8 lakh rupees as per sub-section(I D) of section 206C of the Act.

In your case you are not applying cash more than 2 lakh dats y section 206(1D) wont apply...
