Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the applicability of Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) on shop rent payments exceeding ₹50,000 per month. Under Section 194I, the standard TDS rate for rent of land and buildings is 10%. However, for the financial year 2020-21 (14th May 2020 to 31st March 2021), a temporary reduction applied, making the effective TDS rate 7.5% due to a 25% relaxation on certain non-salaried TDS rates.
Under section 194I : individual /HUF (not covered under tax audit) paying rent to a resident EXCEEDING Rs.50,000 per month are also liable to deduct TDS @ 5%.
Under Section 194-I(b), TDS @ 10% is applicable in case of Rent of Land & Building, Furniture and Fixtures ( Rent for Immovable Property).
However a 25% relaxation have been given for certain Non-Salaried TDS Rates for the PY 2020-21 ( for the period 14th May 2020 to 31st March 2021). So effectively it will be 7.5%.
