TDS u/s 192 - Liability of tax deduction at source from the salary paid to teachers who are nuns or priests of the religious congregations - Chargeability to tax is not dependent on the manner of utilization of the income. The utilization of a person’s income may be a window for claiming a deduction or a refund, but, it is irrefutably not a ground to claim an exclusion from deduction of tax at source. At the time of deducting tax at source, the exigibility to tax or the quantum to be taxed are not matters of relevance. Under the scheme of the Act, those are matters to be considered subsequently, after the annual returns are filed. Thus we hold that section 192 of the Act obliges every person who makes a payment under the head ‘Salaries’ to deduct tax at source at the rates prescribed without fail. - HC
