Binding interim High Court directions treating Leave Travel Concession reimbursements as non-income for TDS purposes prevented bank branches from being treated as assessees in default for non-deduction on reimbursements involving foreign travel. Section 201 liability arises only where tax was not deducted despite a subsisting legal obligation.
