TDS non payment

TDS 905 views 5 replies

Is there any penalty imposed under the provisions of the act for non payment of TDS deducted.

tds should be deposited upto the 7th of the following month & if it is deposited late then interest will be charged on tds amt. & rate of interest is 1% p.m. or part of month

eg: tds is deducted on 18th aug 2010 then the last date for deposit is 7th sep. 2010 & depositing tds amt. after this date interest will be charged @ 1% p.m. or part of month

    

intt rate now is 1.5% pm 

There is not penalty provision on non payment. you will have to pay only interest liability @ 1% p.m. and if your TDS Return is late due to this, there is a provision of penalty by 100/- per day u/s 272A(2).

Apart from the interest, we are talking about, penalty under section 221 may be levied for failure to deduct / deposit TDS in time & the amount of penalty may be upto the sum of TDS involved.

DEAR ALL,

 

FIRST OF ALL, INTEREST WOULD BE LEVIED @ 1% P.M. OR PART THEREOF.

 

SECONDLY, INCOME TAX DEPT WOULD LEVY PENLTY UNDER SEC 221(1) OF THE INCOME TAX ACT, 1961 WHICH WOULD BE MAXIMUM TO THE AMOUNT OF TDS NOT PAID...

 

REGARDS,
