The assessee, acting as a broker and intermediary, facilitated commodity transactions on the National Spot Exchange (NSEL) platform on behalf of clients. The transactions were carried out under the guise of commodity trading without ensuring actual delivery. The Revenue sought to treat the profits earned by the assessee as interest income, invoking TDS provisions u/s 194A. However, the Tribunal held that Section 194A cannot be invoked against the assessee as it was not responsible for paying interest to the clients. The assessee's role was limited to earning brokerage income, which was duly offered for taxation. The Tribunal relied on judicial precedents stating that TDS provisions cannot be applied to intermediaries/agents acting on behalf of clients. Furthermore, a SEBI order placed the primary responsibility on NSEL, not the brokers. Consequently, the Tribunal upheld the CIT(A)'s order, dismissing the Revenue's grounds regarding TDS u/s 194A.
