Tds on personal loan?

No..he's not required to deduct TDS from such payment..

In Your Case, Important is If you have utilised the funds for your proprietorship firm, then you have to deduct TDS.

That you have to prove in Department.

No to Decut TDS on Such Amount

as per Income Tax Act 1956 Sec 194A(b) Any Payment to Banking Company, Co-op. society engaged in banking business, p ublic financial institutions, teh lic of  india, the utr , a company or co-op. society carrying on the business of insurance, or notified institutions. 

The loan is taken from other individual. It is not taken from any financial institution , so 194A(b) will not be applicable here.

@ Ayush Sir,

The loan has no relation or connection to proprietorship firm, so there is no need to deduct TDS on payment?

My confusing point is that : TDS provision says that Individual to whom sec 44AB is applicable has to deduct TDS.  So the section may have the nature of engulfing all payments by such individual, whether for business or personal purpose. I want to confirm whether the applicability is restricted to business payments.

Dear Aditya,

In Your Case TDS is not Applicable, Since any amount paid for personal expenses are not liable to deduct TDS.

and You Already Said There is No Connection with Business. But Just Keep in Mind When There will be Enquiry, then You have to Prove the same in Department.

Thanks.

Ayush is right, It needs  to proven ,if any objection raised, whether the loan amount is utilised in business or not.

Moreover, it is not necessary to claim such interest as expense first under PGBP, to deduct TDS or vice versa.

If liabilty for TDS arise, it is immaterial whether the amount record as expense or not, the person is liable to deduct TDS.

The following is my view.

It is not clearly mentioned for what purpose the loan amount is utilised moreover the nexus between the loan amount and its utilisation is under suspectation and the loan is taken from persoal sources rather than from financial institution.

The compilation of all factors suggests that the intention of assesse is to used the loan amount for the purpose of business and profession.

If assesse utilizes the amount other than for B & P but for the purpose to gain any other income , he is still liable to deduct TDS.

he is also liable to deduct TDS if he used the amount to construct or purchase a house.

In such case TDS is required to deduct

no where in TDs section exclude this.

In spite of loan interest exp. not claimed in business head, TDS cection applicable 

194A only state TDS applicable of cases....,  it not bifercate personal or business exp.

check at your end.
