Capital gains on dissolution: distributions in excess of capital account treated as entity income and valued at fair market value.
Where a partner or member receives a capital asset on dissolution or reconstitution, profit or gain on that receipt is chargeable as capital gains and treated as income of the specified entity in the year of receipt, with fair market value on receipt deemed full consideration. The recipient's capital-account balance is calculated excluding increases from revaluation or self-generated goodwill/assets. Money or other assets received in excess of the capital-account balance are similarly taxed as capital gains, with the capital-account balance deemed the cost of acquisition.

Provisional attachment powers expanded to permit attachment during pending false-entry penalty proceedings when large penalties are likely.
Provisional attachment permits the Assessing Officer, with prior approval from designated senior tax authorities, to attach an assessee's property for six months to protect revenue, revocable on furnishing a bank guarantee which may be invoked if tax demand remains unpaid. The Finance Bill proposes to amend this provision to allow the Assessing Officer to exercise attachment powers during pending penalty proceedings for false or omitted entries where a high-value penalty is likely to be imposed.

Equalisation levy broadened to cover sales and services regardless of operator ownership, with treaty-taxable royalties excluded.
Amendments clarify that consideration chargeable to equalisation levy excludes amounts taxable as royalty or fees for technical services under a notified tax treaty; define e-commerce supply or services to include online acceptance of offers, purchase orders, payment and supply/provision (wholly or partly); broaden consideration to cover sale of goods irrespective of operator ownership and provision of services irrespective of whether provided or facilitated by the operator. These changes operate retrospectively from 1 April 2020, and section 10(50) is adjusted to the same definition and to exclude treaty-taxable royalty or FTS, effective for assessment years from 2021-22.

The proposal removes goodwill of a business or profession from the class of assets eligible for depreciation by excluding it from the definition of block of assets and from assets covered by section 32, provides transitional rules for blocks and capital gains where depreciation was earlier obtained, and preserves purchase price as cost of acquisition for capital gains subject to reduction by any depreciation claimed prior to the operative year.

TDS on purchase of goods: new low-rate withholding applies to buyers exceeding turnover threshold and high-value purchases.
Buyers whose turnover in the preceding financial year exceeds the turnover threshold must deduct tax at a very low prescribed rate on purchases from a seller where aggregate purchases from that seller exceed the specified high-value threshold in the previous year; Central Government may exempt persons by notification. Transactions subject to other withholding or collection are excluded except where concurrent collection would arise - then the purchase withholding applies.

Higher withholding for non-filers: TDS and TCS to be levied at enhanced prescribed rates on specified non filers.
A special withholding regime imposes enhanced TDS and TCS rates on a "specified person" who failed to file returns for the two relevant prior assessment years after the filing deadline and whose aggregate TDS/TCS in each year meets a threshold; the TDS rate is the highest of twice the statutory rate, twice the rate in force, or a fixed base rate, and the TCS rate is the higher of twice the statutory rate or the fixed base rate.
