I do not agree with both the above opinions expressed by the experts. Section 194A(3)(iii)(f) provides as in this regards that the Interest credited or paid to such institutions association or body corporate which the central govt. may for the reason to be recorded in writing notify be exempt from TDS. The Notified institution for this purpose are notified by various notifications issued by CBDT. For the list of such institution please see the page no 3.202 of taxmann master Guide to Income tax 18th Addition / 2008.
