Domestic companies electing the concessional tax regime are barred from claiming any Chapter VI-A deductions except two specified exceptions: the employee-related wage deduction and the intercorporate dividend relief provision. This amendment takes effect from 1 April 2020 and applies to the assessment year beginning thereafter and subsequent assessment years, narrowing the deductions and incentives available to companies that opt for the special tax rate.

New concessional tax regime for individuals and HUFs allows optional slab taxation with strict deduction and withdrawal conditions.
Insertion of section 115BAC allows individuals and HUFs to opt into a concessional tax regime from assessment year 2021-22 under specified slab rates, subject to conditions: limited permitted allowances, broad disallowance of exemptions and deductions (including many section 10 exemptions, chapter VI-A deductions, and certain depreciation and loss set-offs), prescribed treatment of depreciation and transitional written-down value adjustment, prescribed exercise and withdrawal mechanics, and consequential exclusion from AMT and AMT credit carry-forward provisions.

Concessional tax option for resident co-operative societies permits a reduced corporate rate subject to strict disallowances.
A new provision allows resident co-operative societies to opt for a concessional tax regime from the assessment year beginning 1 April 2021 where the society elects the option by the prescribed due date; the option is irrevocable and applies to subsequent years. Eligibility requires computing total income without specified deductions or incentives and without set-off of earlier losses or depreciation attributable to those disallowed items; such losses and depreciation are deemed given full effect and barred from future deduction, with prescribed written down value adjustments for unabsorbed depreciation. The regime attracts a 10 per cent surcharge and excludes applicability of Alternate Minimum Tax and related credit carryforward.

Tax rate structure and withholding: optional new regimes affect salary TDS, advance tax and surcharge treatment.
Part III of the First Schedule prescribes slab-based TDS rates on salaries, advance tax computation rules and surcharge bands with marginal relief for individuals, HUFs, co-operative societies, firms, local authorities and companies; it retains distinct corporate rates tied to turnover, applies a health and education cess, and creates elective alternate tax regimes including optional taxation under section 115BAC for individuals/HUFs and section 115BAD for resident co-operative societies, which affect rate computation and surcharge treatment.

Tax Deduction at Source: rates remain as prior year; new sections added and section 194 rate amended.
Tax deduction at source rates for non-salary incomes in FY 2020-21 remain as specified in the prior year schedule; section-specific deduction provisions persist. New sections 194K and 194O specify rates within those sections, and the rate under section 194 is revised to a rate stated in the Bill. Surcharge provisions apply to non-resident recipients by category and income bands, and Health and Education Cess continues to apply on income tax including surcharge.

Surcharge tiers on income-tax established by taxpayer class and income bands; marginal relief and health and education cess apply.
The Bill prescribes tax rates for assessment year 2020-21 and establishes a multi-tier surcharge regime differentiated by taxpayer class and income bands, with specific caps on surcharge for income taxed under certain provisions. Marginal relief is provided to temper surcharge effects at thresholds. A Health and Education Cess is levied at a fixed rate on income tax inclusive of surcharge, with no marginal relief available for the cess.

Judicial custody applied where investigative agency failed to demonstrate necessity for police or CBI custodial interrogation.
The magistrate refused the investigating agency's request for custodial interrogation, finding insufficient grounds for police/CBI custody and remanding the accused to judicial custody pending further production. The accused and co accused presented conflicting accounts-one alleging he had been investigating a larger fraud and that superiors failed to act-while defence counsel warned of administrative consequences arising from custody. The magistrate applied the requirement that custodial remand be justified by demonstrable investigative necessity rather than allegation alone.

Slab-based income tax rates are prescribed for individuals, HUFs, AOPs, BOIs and artificial juridical persons with separate resident senior citizen slabs; computed tax is subject to a graduated surcharge for higher incomes, accompanied by a cap mechanism preventing the total tax-plus-surcharge on an income from exceeding the tax at the relevant bracket threshold by more than the excess income above that threshold.

Rates of income-tax for co-operative societies remain as specified in Paragraph B of Part III of the First Schedule to the Finance Bill, unchanged from the prior year.

Firm tax rate unchanged; surcharge applies to high income firms with a statutory cap limiting surcharge on excess income.
Rate of tax for firms for TDS and advance tax remains unchanged from the prior year; a surcharge of twelve per cent is levied where a firm's total income exceeds one crore rupees, subject to a cap that limits the aggregate income tax and surcharge on income above the threshold to not exceed the tax on the threshold amount by more than the excess income.

Surcharge on local authority income applies above a threshold, with a statutory cap limiting aggregate tax increase.
The income-tax rate for local authorities is maintained at the prior year's level for purposes of TDS and advance tax; a statutory surcharge is levied where total income exceeds a prescribed threshold. A statutory cap limits the combined income-tax and surcharge so that the aggregate tax on income above the threshold does not exceed the income-tax payable as if income equalled the threshold by more than the excess income.

Corporate tax rate revised, varying by domestic status; surcharge and health and education cess apply.
Income tax rates for companies distinguish domestic and other companies, with domestic companies below a specified turnover threshold subject to a lower rate and others taxed at a higher rate. Surcharge is levied in graded bands for domestic and non domestic companies, with marginal relief caps limiting excess tax attributable to incomes above prescribed thresholds. Certain specified company cases attract a prescribed surcharge rate. A Health and Education Cess is levied on tax including surcharge, and marginal relief is not available in respect of that cess.

Section 194M imposes withholding on payments by individuals and Hindu undivided families to resident contractors and professionals where the aggregate annual payments exceed the statutory threshold; tax is to be deducted at the prescribed withholding rate and may be deposited using the payer's Permanent Account Number, relieving such payers from the requirement to obtain a Tax Deduction Account Number.

TDS on transfer of immovable property now covers ancillary charges, expanding 'consideration' to include fees incidental to sale.
The Explanation to Section 194-IA is amended to state that consideration for immovable property includes ancillary charges payable by the buyer-such as club membership, car parking, electricity and water facility fees, maintenance fees, advance fees and other similar incidental charges-thereby making these amounts part of the taxable base for TDS on transfer of immovable property other than agricultural land.

Deemed accrual of gifts: transfers by Indian residents to nonresidents treated as taxable in India under new provision.
Gifts of money or property made by a person resident in India to a person outside India, where the property is situated in India or sums are paid, are deemed to accrue or arise in India for tax purposes when made on or after 5 July 2019; existing statutory gift exemptions continue to apply and applicable DTAA provisions remain operative.

Amendments mandate filing of income tax returns by individuals who, during the previous year, undertake specified high-value transactions-including large current account deposits, significant foreign travel expenditure, or substantial electricity consumption-or meet other prescribed conditions; and require persons claiming capital gains rollover exemptions on reinvestment in specified assets to file returns when their pre-rollover total income exceeded the basic exemption limit, even if post-claim income is below that limit.

Inter-changeability of PAN and Aadhaar: Aadhaar may be quoted in lieu of PAN and recipients must ensure authentication.
Proposed amendments allow a person required to quote PAN to furnish an Aadhaar number in lieu of PAN and provide that persons entering certain prescribed transactions who lack a PAN must apply for one; recipients of documents must ensure PAN or Aadhaar is duly quoted and authenticated, and a penalty provision is amended to enforce compliance.
News Bills
Show AI Summary
PAN-Aadhaar linkage: failure to intimate Aadhaar renders PAN inoperative while preserving prior transactions under proposed amendment.
Failure to intimate Aadhaar will result in the PAN being made inoperative in the prescribed manner rather than being deemed invalid, with an express provision preserving the validity of transactions previously carried out through that PAN; the amendment is prospective and will take effect from the notified effective date.
