Direct payment of tax: assessee liable when no deduction occurs, and withholding agent becomes assessee in default. Direct payment of income-tax is required where there is no provision for deduction or collection at source, or where tax has not been deducted or collected as required; the assessee must pay the tax directly. A person required to deduct or collect tax who fails to do so, or deducts/collects but fails to remit the whole amount, and where the assessee also fails to pay, is deemed to be an assessee in default and liable for the unpaid tax.
