Section 194D - Payment of insurance commission (Rationalisation and Simplification of taxation of Capital Gains)

TDS on insurance commission reduced for non-corporate payees, affecting deduction at credit or payment from the effective date.

The Finance Bill amends withholding tax treatment for remuneration or reward for soliciting or procuring insurance business by reducing the TDS rate applicable to resident non-corporate payees; payers must continue to deduct tax at source when such income is credited or paid under existing triggering rules and modes, with the reduced rate taking effect from the prescribed effective date stated in the amendment.
