1. Will Section 206AA override German DTAA? Do we need to add EC & SHEC to the same?
2. If the German Co. applies for PAN, then will it need to comply with Return filing & Auditing provisions? Total payment to be made is 125,000 EUROS.

Please put your arguments supporting your views. Reply urgently.

Thanks in advance

According to German DTAA, tax is to we withheld @ 10%.
But according to Section 206AA we need to deduct tax @ 20%.

1. Will Section 206AA override German DTAA? Do we need to add EC & SHEC to the same? ( sec 206AA is independent and related to panel deduction @ 20% for non PAN cases, EC & SHEC is above the TDS Rate payable)
2. If the German Co. applies for PAN, then will it need to comply with Return filing & Auditing provisions? Total payment to be made is 125,000 EUROS.

( as the country is under DTTA, so they dont have to file return in india- more experts can enlight the issue better)
