TDS on Foreign Technical Services: 25% Rate Applied; Clarifying Impact of Section 206AA on Surcharge and Education Cess. A forum participant inquired about the appropriate Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) rate for a foreign payment related to technical services, given a 25% rate per budget amendment, a 22.5% rate under the Double Taxation Avoidance Agreement (DTAA) with Poland, and the absence of a Permanent Account Number (PAN) for the foreign party, invoking Section 206AA. A response clarified that TDS should be deducted at 25%. The participant further asked if surcharge and education cess apply to the 25% rate, noting Section 206AA does not specify these additions.
