Rate of TDS on Rent and TDS chart for F.Y. 2017-18

[Ramesh Rangani]

Hi Experts!

Pl. help me in my understanding for TDS on rent of residential property (guest house):
Since the company is going to pay rent of INR 51000 per month for full year (Apr-2017 to Mar-2018), provisions of Section 194I-B is not applicable. Hence provisions of 194I is applicable and TDS @ 10% on every payment of rent will be deducted.
Thanking you in anticipation.
Rgds,
Ramesh

The Finance Act, 2017 gives the list. If it is not possible to get it please inform.

Sir, Pls inform if there is any provision as per the amendment in Budget 2016 that NO TDS need to be deducted if 15G / 15H has been submitted, while TDS is supposed to be deducted @ 10%, applicable under sec,194 - 1 when the Rent payable by the company is more than 1,80,000/- p.a. Regards.

AI Summary

TDS on rent: applicability of general rent withholding provision to residential guesthouses and effect of 15G/15H submissions.
Contributor asserts that the specific premises exclusion is not applicable to a residential guest house, so the general rent withholding provision applies and tax must be deducted at the prescribed withholding rate on each payment when annual rent exceeds the statutory threshold; respondents cite the Finance Act, 2017 and question whether submission of Forms 15G/15H negates the obligation to deduct tax.
