Could you please guide me on behalf of some relatives. We (they) are based in Nepal. No office or PAN in India. We are agents for an Indian company for supplying their material directly to Nepalese importers. We understand that our work is done in Nepal, and the income arises in Nepal (not in India). So can the Indian company claim to deduct TDS on the basis of Section 206AA of Finance Act 2009. Can you provide me link to some govt. notification etc. which would provide me relief so that TDS is not deducted. - R. Mittal, B.Com., LLB.

As per section 9 income arise or accure from india is taxable in hands of assess. In your case income arise from india bcz indian company will pay the lumpsum amount for providing service. You didnot have pan card that means 20% TDs should deducted

As far as we are concerned, we work in Nepal, provide the service here, and so our income arises here. We think : Section 206AA of Finance Act 2009 is applicable to any person entitled to receive any sum or income or amount, on which tax is deductible under Chapter XVIIB. This chapter provides for TDS deduction for incomes arising in India (whether for Indians or non residents). Our income arises in Nepal. For the Indian Company, it is the expense which arises. Please advise friends.
