Dear Sir,
Does Surcharge & Cess, on TDS rates under DTAA or Penal rate of TDS at the rate of 20 percent u/s 206AA for not having PAN, is applicable or not?
An early reply with quotes and references will be highly appreciated.

TDS surcharge and cess applicability under DTAA or penal TDS u/s 206AA questioned; guidance sought on tax treatment. Query whether surcharge and cess apply to withholding tax under DTAA rates and to the penal withholding rate imposed for taxpayers lacking PAN, and a request for authoritative citations to determine whether these additional levies are included in the TDS tax base.
