Dear Experts

How much rate of % PF and ESI,

we have make a provision entry for Directors Commission (Section Code 92B) with TDS deduction and credited to directors account on 31-03-2008 but till date the net commission after deducting TDS was not paid to directors what is the due date for TDS Payment to Govt.pl clarify till date we have not paid the TDS also we have to pay the interest on late payment of TDS or not

I read that sitting fees paid to directors would come under purview of 194(J).The reason it seems is that he can be defined as manager under companies act..1956,which seems to be an absurd explanation!! How can tat definition be applied to income tax act ???Should come under194(J) ??

ours is a pvt ltd co.in building construction trade,we have taken over a partnership firm as a going concern and after taking over the partnership firm,the partnership firm is dissolved.our pvt ltd co. now wants to take the advantage of credentials of taken over partnership firm--
1.like its experiences of work done,i.e.work completion certificates.
2.its turnover in last years.
The query is so generated bcoz ours pvt ltd co.is doing contract business so previous experience[specially these two] is a critical factor in bidding.

Sir,

I am confused. Yesterday i got two opinion stating Driver's salary should be included in vehicle running & maint exp.

Please refer to "CIRCULAR No. 8/2005, dt 29/8/05 of Fin Act, 2005.

Point No. 78

Reimbursement in respect of car exp on the basis of bills submitted & driver's salary on the basis of declaration :

such reimbursement is effectively exp of employers for the purpose ofconveyance, tour & travel covered in clause (F). SO IT IS A CONVEYANCE EXP.

Point No. 87

Salary paid to driver of a motor car :
is a vehicle running & maint exp.

THE ABOVE TWO POINTS ARE CONTRADICTORY.

CAN U URGENTLY CLARIFY.

WHAT IS THE CORRECT TREATMENT?

Thanks

Subhash
