19 March 2014 Your Question is not clear at all

20 March 2014 I means,

If Mr. A is proprietor of company name of xyz co. & if xyz co.'s bank account in icici bank & Mr. A's bank account in HDFC. Now, Mr. A loan received as unsecured in his personal HDFC bank account. Now , Mr. A give intrest on loan. So, TDS is applicable for deduct against Intrest or not.

27 July 2025 Got it! Here’s the clarification:

* If **Mr. A** (the proprietor) **lends money to his own firm (xyz co.) from his personal account**, and the firm pays **interest to Mr. A** on that loan, then:

### Is TDS applicable on interest paid by the firm to Mr. A (proprietor)?

**No, TDS is not applicable in this case** because:

* The payment is between a **proprietor and his own business (proprietorship firm)** — the firm and the proprietor are not separate legal entities.
* As per Income Tax rules, interest paid to the proprietor on capital or loans given by the proprietor to the firm is **not treated as an income liable for TDS deduction** by the firm.

### Key points:

* The interest paid by the firm to Mr. A is **income in the hands of Mr. A** and will be taxed in his personal income tax return.
* The firm does **not deduct TDS** on interest paid to the proprietor’s personal loan.

| ------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------ |
| Interest paid by firm to proprietor on personal loan | **No** |
| Interest paid by company to third party (banks, others) | Yes (under Section 194A) |
