Some FAQ’s on Section 194N

  1. I have filed the Last 2 years’ ITR and my withdrawals will be 18 Lakhs this year. TDS will be not be Deducted under section 194N, as the Payment during the financial year does not exceed 20 Lakhs. If the Payment would exceed Rs 20, 00,000 then TDS will be deducted @2% on the whole amount of cash withdrawals.

 

  1. Will Current Assessment Year ITR will be counted in the Last 3 years ITR for non-Deduction Of TDS?

No, only Preceding 3 years ITR will be counted for this section. Current Assessment years ITR will be counted from the Next Year. For Example for the financial year 2020-21, ITR for the preceding 3 years which are 2019-20, 2018-19, 2017-18 shall be taken into consideration for the availing of non-deduction of TDS.
