Rate remains same. The tax on distributed profits u/s 115-O shall be payable @15% plus surcharge @10% plus Education Cess (EC) @2% plus SHEC @1% of amount of dividend so declared, distributed or paid. Thus, dividends paid by a domestic company are subject to the DDT at an effective rate of 16.995%. It may be noted that surcharge @ 10% of tax will be payable irrespective of the amount distributed under these sections.
