Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies whether Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) under Section 194A needs to be applied to overdue interest, prepayment charges, and cheque bounce charges levied by NBFCs for delayed EMI payments. While these charges are often reversed upon loan closure, the consensus is that they should be treated as expenses rather than interest attracting TDS, especially if they are additional to the principal amount.

No need, mostly such interest and charges gets reversed in the end at the time of loan closure

It is the payable amount at the time of closure but these should be recognised as an expenses only because it is additional to the principal amount. Like interest overdue interest, prepayment and cheque bounce also need to be recognised an an expense.

No need
