Interest paid by a co-operative bank to another co-operative society, including a non-member depositor society, falls within the inter-co-operative-society exemption from tax deduction at source. The exclusion of co-operative banks from the member-payment limb does not extend to the separate limb covering payments between co-operative societies; a co-operative bank retains its character as a co-operative society.
