I dont think TDS is to be deducted @ 20% from 1/10/2009.
206AA will be effective from 1/4/2010 .
normal rates would prevail before that for no pan / invalid pan .
I just hope the provisions of 206AA are amended before that otherwise it will be a havoc for a lot of people , employing unorganised labour . I am sure they cant have a pan card even if they want to as they dont have any proof . Is it justified levying a tds rate of 20% just cos some one doesnt have a pan card , even if hes legally not required to have a pan card ?
