tds on factoring charges

YES IT IS APPLICABLE..

i think opinion by a CA firm regarding non applicability of TDS on factoring charges will have no impact until n unless the same has been confirmed by IT dept.?

The TDS in my understanding would not be applicable. there is a basic difference between the two. Bill discounting has a nature of loan and factoring charges where the receivables are sold to the asset restructuring or a factoring company at discount. see the difference on the link given https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Factoring_(finance) in more details.

Further, as per the recent ruling in

ITO vs. Kanha Vanaspati Ltd. (2007) 108 TTJ 816 (Delhi), the TDS would be applicable on bill discounting and it does not talk about factoring charges.

And bill discounting and factoring charges are not comparable and factoring charges in my opinion would not attract the TDS provisions.

An Example of Invoice Finance

Company "A" imports branded clothing into the UK and sells the goods, inter alia, to 2 large high street retailers.

It receives 30 days credit from date of shipment from its overseas suppliers and the goods can be brought into the UK , delivered and invoiced to customers within 30 days.

It is selling to its UK customers on 60 days terms and needs funding against invoice in order to pay the suppliers on due dates.

The 2 large high street retailers dominate the sales ledger accounting for over 80% of Company A's turnover.

Mainstream debtor funders are generally looking for a spread of debtors in the sales ledger. Conventional Invoice Finance arrangements contain a limited high concentration clause, restricting the cash that can be advanced against the 2 largest customers in this example.

We have a Finance Company that are happy with the credit risk of the 2 major retailers and analysis of the historical trading record shows that there has been limited disputes and credit notes diluting the value of the security. The Finance House will accordingly fund the full amount of the debt and the requisite funding to Company A to pay its suppliers on the due dates.

Have a nice day......
