09 September 2012 Hi,

In Lottery cantidates have to buy lottery tickets 1st it may be Rs. 100, Rs. 1000 or may be for Rs. 100,000 so KBC is not eligible to come in Lottery.

U/s 194BB there are only two games 1 cross word, card game and race hources races.

THERE IS NO TAX IMPLICATION BY KBC, IT IS RIGHT TO GIVE FULL AMOUNT OF CHEQUE TO CANDIDATE section 194BB is not applicable to KBC.

Candidate who won Rs. 1crore show it in his return of income as income from other source and pay tax on it accordingly.

In book of KBC it will Shown As expense as REWARD PAID. because sec 194BB is not applicable to KBC.
