TDS ON ROYALTY PAYMENTS

There is a case. Please reply it. If u ve any judgements on this topic, please post it.
There is amendment in Finance act 2006 on TDS Section 194J for inclusion of royalty for deduction of tax w.e.f july 13, 2006. But assessee had not deduct any tax from payment of royalty in financial year 2006-07, due to new amendment in act and igonrance about it. Payee booked this royalty as his income anh paid tax on his income.
Tell me its consequences.
Whether there is any judgement on it in favour of asseessee, as payee paid tax and there was ignorance of law on part of asseessee, not having intention?

Dear Sir,

I don't think the ground of ignorance will be considered.

But Yes where payee has deposited the Tax in due course (In form of advance tax) then Interest u/s 201 cannot be levid on the assesee

Where payee has paid tax due as advance tax interest is not leviable on payer - Where the assessee-society failed to deduct tax at source on an interest payment made to a building contractor, but the said contractor had already paid tax on the related income by way of advance tax and his assessment had also become final, no interest could be levied under section 201(1A) on the assessee. The liability of the assessee to deduct tax at source and pay the tax to the Revenue is not independent of the liability of the contractor to pay the tax - CIT v. Rishikesh Apartments Co-op. Housing Society Ltd. [2002](Guj.)
