of <h1>Court rules interest component of decree not subject to TDS deduction.</h1> <h3>Madhusudan Shrikrishna Versus Emkay Exports</h3> Madhusudan Shrikrishna Versus Emkay Exports - TMI Issues Involved: Dispute settlement, Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) on interest component of decree.Dispute Settlement: The parties have settled the dispute, but a query arises regarding the deduction of TDS on the interest component of the decree. The defendants express apprehension about the provisions of section 194A of the Income-tax Act, stating that tax should be deducted at source on the interest component. The plaintiff argues that since the amount is for discharging a liability crystallized by a court decree, the defendants are not liable to deduct tax at source.Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) Issue: The defendants rely on judgments including Lt. Col. K.D. Gupta v. Union of India and Islamic Investment Co. v. Union of India to support their position. The court distinguishes the present case from Lt. Col. K.D. Gupta's case, emphasizing that once a decree is passed, it is an order of the court to be discharged without deduction of tax at source. The court rules that the defendants are not entitled to withhold payment for TDS, as the issue of tax liability can be determined by the Income-tax authorities after payment to the decree holder.
