Extension of TDS proviso: deductor relief for payments to non residents when the payee files a return and pays tax.
The law is amended to extend the first proviso to section 201 to cover payments to non residents so that where a non resident payee files a return, discloses the payment, pays tax and furnishes a certificate, the deductor will not be treated as an assessee in default; interest will accrue only until the payee's return filing date. Additionally, clause (a) of section 40 is amended to deem tax as deducted and paid on the date the payee files its return, preventing disallowance of such payments.

Secondary adjustment rules updated: option to pay a one-time additional tax instead of repatriating excess transfer pricing amounts.
Section 92CE requires secondary adjustment where a primary transfer-pricing adjustment arises from specified mechanisms. The amendment makes the monetary threshold and earlier-year condition alternative tests; mandates interest calculation on excess funds; limits application to agreements signed after a specified date without refunds for prior taxes; allows repatriation from non-resident associated enterprises; and offers an option to pay a one-time additional income-tax (with surcharge) in lieu of repatriation, which is final, non-creditable, non-deductible, and relieves the secondary adjustment requirement from payment date.

The proposal amends section 111A to extend the concessional rate of short-term capital gains tax to transfers of units of specified equity-oriented fund of funds set up for CPSE disinvestment, bringing short-term tax treatment into alignment with the existing concessional long-term capital gains regime under section 112A; the amendment applies prospectively to assessment years commencing after the stated effective date.

Pass-through of AIF losses: business losses retained at fund; certain non-business losses deemed to eligible unit holders and carried forward.
Amendment to section 115UB provides that AIF business losses remain at the fund and are carried forward under Chapter VI and not passed to unit holders; non-business losses tied to units not held by a unit holder for at least twelve months are ignored for pass-through; non-business losses accumulated at the fund as on 31 March 2019 are deemed to be the losses of unit holders who held units on that date and may be carried forward and set off by them under Chapter VI, and those deemed losses will not be available to the fund.

TDS on life insurance income: withholding will target the income component to align taxable reporting and reconciliation.
The amendment requires withholding tax to be deducted on the income component of non-exempt life insurance payouts rather than on the gross payout, to facilitate automatic matching of deductor TDS returns with recipients' tax returns because the payer can ascertain the premium paid by the policyholder, and specifies a commencement date for the change.

Tax recovery under international agreements expanded to allow enforcement based on residency when property details are unavailable.
Amendments permit recovery of tax under agreements with foreign countries where property details are unavailable by allowing enforcement when the target person is a resident in India, and reciprocally where an assessee in default is a resident in a foreign country despite lack of property details, thereby enabling treaty-based recovery through residency-based enforcement.
