Modernizing Tax Deduction at Source on Salaries : Clause 392(1)-(6) of the Income Tax Bill, 2025 Vs....
Show AI Summary
Tax Deduction at Source on Salaries modernizes employer TDS obligations and clarifies perquisite and reporting requirements.
Clause 392 modernizes Tax Deduction at Source on salaries by retaining the employer duty to deduct tax at the average rate on estimated salary payments, preserving the employer option to pay tax on non monetary perquisites (treated as TDS), providing special timing for start up equity perquisites, and requiring employers to consider specified employee declarations (other salary, reliefs, house property loss, other income, and tax deducted elsewhere) subject to limitations on reductions. It mandates prescribed statements, evidence, record keeping, and permits intra year TDS adjustments, with procedural details to be set by rules.

Tax Deduction Failures and Direct Payment Modernizing the Assessee's Obligations :Clause 391 of the ...
Show AI Summary
Direct payment obligation makes the recipient liable where TDS is absent, with deductor deemed in default if both parties fail.
Clause 391 requires the recipient to pay income tax directly where TDS is not applicable or has not been deducted, includes a deferred payment mechanism for specified securities and sweat equity issued by eligible start-ups as per the Bill's timelines, and creates a deeming fiction rendering the deductor or employer an assessee-in-default if both deductor and assessee fail to discharge the liability, while preserving interest, penalty and crediting consequences.

Transforming Tax Deduction and Collection : Clause 390(1) - (3) of the Income Tax Bill, 2025 Vs. Sec...
Show AI Summary
Tax Collection at Source: payment obligations arise with income receipt and stand independent of later assessments.
Clause 390 mandates three modes of tax payment-deduction or collection at source, advance payment, and payment under section 392(2)(a)-to be effected "as per this Chapter," establishes that these obligations arise irrespective of later assessment proceedings, and includes a savings provision preserving the substantive charge to tax under section 4(1), thereby ensuring collection mechanisms do not affect the underlying tax liability.
Act Rules Bills
Continuity of Tax Liability After Firm Dissolution : Clause 330 of Income Tax Bill, 2025 Vs. Section...
Show AI Summary
Continuity of tax liability: dissolved firms treated as continuing for assessment, penalties, and recovery under new clause.
Clause 330 treats a dissolved or discontinued firm as continuing for assessment and recovery, empowering tax authorities to assess total income, impose penalties, and apply all Act provisions; it imposes joint and several liability on partners and legal representatives and permits continuation of proceedings at the stage they stood at dissolution, while preserving other relevant statutory provisions through a saving clause.

Joint and Several Liability of Partners for Firm Tax Dues : Clause 329 of the Income Tax Bill, 2025 ...
Show AI Summary
Joint and several liability of partners: partners and estates may be pursued for firm tax and related penalties under the new Bill.
The Bill imposes joint and several liability on every person who was a partner during the tax year and on the legal representatives of deceased partners for tax, penalty and other sums payable by the firm, allowing recovery from the firm or any partner and applying the Act's assessment, recovery and penalty machinery to such liabilities.
Act Rules Bills
Taxation of Successor and Predecessor Partnership Firms : Clause 328 of the Income Tax Bill, 2025 Vs...
Show AI Summary
Succession of partnership firms requires separate assessments to apportion tax between predecessor and successor periods.
Clause 328 mandates separate assessments where a firm is succeeded by another: income up to succession is assessed in the predecessor's hands and income thereafter in the successor's hands, with procedural rules to be applied as per Section 313; the clause excludes cases covered by the provision addressing change in constitution, preserving the distinction between succession and mere partner changes.
Act Rules Bills
Assessing the Impact of Constitutional Changes in Firms : Clause 327 of the Income Tax Bill, 2025 Vs...
Show AI Summary
Change in constitution of a firm: assessment on the firm as constituted at assessment time, preserving tax continuity.
Change in constitution of a firm provides that assessment shall be on the firm as constituted at the time of assessment where partners cease, new partners are admitted (with at least one pre existing partner continuing), or shares change; an exception preserves dissolution on the death of a partner. The clause modernizes language and cross references to updated assessment provisions, maintains continuity in tax liability, and places emphasis on partnership deeds, record keeping, and potential factual disputes over reconstitution versus succession.
Act Rules Bills
Procedural Compliance and Taxation of Partnership Firms : Clause 326 of the Income Tax Bill, 2025 Vs...
Show AI Summary
Procedural compliance in partnership taxation: noncompliance bars firm deductions for partner payments while avoiding partner double taxation.
Clause 326 of the Income Tax Bill, 2025, applies where a partnership firm fails to comply with Clause 325 procedural requirements; it invokes a non-obstante override to disallow deductions for payments to partners described as interest, salary, bonus, commission or remuneration, and concurrently excludes those disallowed amounts from taxation in the hands of partners, mirroring the substantive effect of the earlier statute while updating cross-references and structure.
Act Rules Bills
Continuity and Change in the Taxation of Partnership Firms : Clause 325 of the Income Tax Bill, 2025...
Show AI Summary
Firm assessment requirements: written certified partnership instrument needed, with non compliance causing denial of partner deductions.
Clause 325 requires that a partnership be evidenced by a written instrument specifying each partner's share and that a certified copy accompany the return when assessment as a firm is first sought; certification must be by all partners (excluding minors) or relevant predecessors/representatives on dissolution. Once assessed as a firm, continuity of assessment applies unless the firm's constitution or shares change, in which case a revised certified instrument must be filed and the conditions reapply. Failure to comply triggers denial of deductions for payments to partners and prevents those payments from being taxed in the partners' hands.
Act Rules Bills
Tax Recovery from Directors of Private Companies : Clause 323 of the Income Tax Bill, 2025 Vs. Secti...
Show AI Summary
Director liability for unpaid company taxes: joint and several personal exposure subject to defence of absence of gross neglect.
Clause 323 imposes joint and several personal liability on every person who was a director at any time during the relevant tax year where tax due from a private company cannot be recovered, with "tax due" including penalty, interest, fees and other sums; the director may avoid liability only by proving that non recovery was not attributable to gross neglect, misfeasance or breach of duty, and the provision overrides contrary company law provisions.
Act Rules Bills
Personal Liability and Tax Compliance in Liquidation of companies : Clause 322 of Income Tax Bill, 2...
Show AI Summary
Liquidator personal liability: enforced civil responsibility to secure tax dues during liquidation while aligning with insolvency priorities.
Clause 322 requires any liquidator or receiver to notify the assessing officer within thirty days of appointment and, after the assessing officer notifies an amount sufficient to cover tax liabilities (within three months), to set aside that sum and refrain from disposing of assets without leave; exceptions permit payment of tax, secured creditors with legal priority, and reasonable winding up expenses. Non compliance attracts personal civil liability for the liquidator, capped at the notified amount where applicable, and obligations are joint and several, with Clause 322 subject to the primacy of the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code.
Act Rules Bills
Assessment and Enforcement against Dissolved Associations : Clause 321 of the Income Tax Bill, 2025 ...
Show AI Summary
Assessment continuity: Dissolution of an AOP does not prevent assessment, penalty imposition, or recovery from members.
Clause 321 permits assessment of an association of persons as if no discontinuance or dissolution had taken place, applying all statutory provisions including penalties and other sums. It empowers original and appellate officers to impose penalties specified in the penalty chapter, imposes joint and several liability on members and their legal representatives, and allows continuation of proceedings already commenced against such persons from the stage they stood at dissolution. A saving clause preserves interaction with specified cross referenced provisions.

Show AI Summary
Accelerated assessment on business discontinuance enables taxation up to cessation with mandatory notice and taxation of post-cessation receipts.
Clause 320 permits discretionary accelerated assessment of income up to the date of business discontinuance, mandates separate assessments for each completed tax year or part thereof, requires mandatory notification of discontinuance within fifteen days, empowers notice and information-gathering powers on persons, partners or officers, and deems post-discontinuance receipts to be taxable as income of the recipient while clarifying that tax charged under the clause is additional to any other tax liability.

Show AI Summary
Preventive assessment of likely asset transfers: current year taxation triggered by AO belief of tax avoidance intent.
Clause 319 empowers the Assessing Officer to tax the total income of persons believed likely to dispose of assets to avoid tax, charging income in the current tax year from its first day until proceedings commence; it requires formation of an AO opinion based on credible material, applies procedural provisions analogous to those for persons leaving the jurisdiction, and raises interpretive issues including the undefined scope of "assets", the standard for AO satisfaction, the truncated assessment period, and overlap with other anti avoidance rules.

Taxation of short lived entities: income of event specific AOPs/BOIs/AJPs charged in the tax year up to dissolution.
Clause 318 empowers the Assessing Officer to treat the total income of an AOP, BOI or AJP formed for a particular event or purpose as chargeable to tax for the tax year from its first day up to the date of dissolution where the AO is satisfied the entity is likely to dissolve, and applies the Bill's expedited procedural machinery for assessment, provisional determination and recovery.

Assessment of persons leaving India: expedited tax assessment from the tax year start to departure with short notice requirements.
Clause 317 permits the Assessing Officer to assess an individual's total income from the first day of the current tax year up to the probable date of departure where the AO reasonably believes the individual intends not to return; income is assessed by completed tax years or part-years at rates in force, may be estimated if not readily determinable, and the AO may require an expedited return within a minimum seven-day period, with taxes charged under this provision being additional to other tax liabilities.

Enforcement of Tax Recovery from Non-Residents : Clause 422 of the Income Tax Bill, 2025 Vs. Section...
Show AI Summary
Recovery of tax from non residents: source withholding and attachment of any assets within India enable enforcement.
Clause 422 and Section 173 authorise two primary enforcement mechanisms against non residents: recovery by deduction at source imposed on payers, agents or representative assessees, and recovery by attachment of any assets of the non resident that are, or may at any time come, within India. These powers apply whether tax is assessed in the non resident's name or in the name of a representative assessee and operate without prejudice to other assessment and recovery provisions, creating a continuing domestic enforcement right subject to definitional, procedural and treaty interaction issues.

Rationalisation of provision of transfer of capital asset to partner on dissolution or reconstitution

The existing provisions of section 45 of the Act inter alia, provides that any profits or gains arising from the transfer of a capital asset shall be chargeable to income-tax under the head Capital gains and shall be deemed to be the income of the previous year in which such transfer takes place. Further sub-section (4) of the said section, provides that the profits or gains arising from the transfer of a capital asset by way of distribution of capital assets on the dissolution of a firm or other association of persons or body of individuals (not being a company or a co-operative society)or otherwise, shall be chargeable to tax as the income of such firm or other association of persons or body of individuals of the previous year in which the said transfer takes place. Further, the fair market value of the asset on the date of such transfer shall be deemed to be the full value of the consideration for the purposes of section 48.

In this regard, it has been noticed that there is uncertainty regarding applicability of provisions of aforesaid sub-section to a situation where assets are revalued or self- generated assets are recorded in the books of accounts and payment is made to partner or member which is in excess of his capital contribution.

Hence, it is proposed to substitute the existing sub-section (4) of section 45 of the Act with a new sub-section (4) and also insert a new sub-section (4A) to this section.

New proposed sub-section (4) of section 45 of the Act applies in a case where a specified person who receives during the previous year any capital asset at the time of dissolution or reconstitution of the specified entity. The capital asset represents the balance in the capital account of such specified person in the books of the specified entity at the time of its dissolution or reconstitution. In this situation, the profit and gains arising from the receipt of such capital asset by the specified person shall be chargeable to income-tax as income of the specified entity under the head “capital gains” and shall be deemed to be the income of such specified entity of the previous year in which the capital asset was received by the specified person. For the purposes of section 48 of the Act, the fair market value of the capital asset on the date of such receipt shall be deemed to be the full value of the consideration received or accruing as a result of the transfer of the capital asset. The balance in the capital account of the specified person in the books of account of the specified entity is to be calculated without taking into account increase in the capital account of the specified person due to revaluation of any asset or due to self-generated goodwill or any other self-generated asset.

New proposed section sub-section (4A) of section 45 of the Act applies in a case where a specified person receives during the previous year any money or other asset at the time of dissolution or reconstitution of the specified entity. The money or other asset is required to be in excess of the balance in the capital account of such specified person in the books of accounts of the specified entity at the time of its dissolution or reconstitution. In this situation, the profits or gains arising from the receipt of such money or other asset by the specified person shall be chargeable to income-tax as income of the specified entity under the head "Capital gains" and shall be deemed to be the income of such specified entity of the previous year in which the money or other asset was received by the specified person. For the purposes of section 48 of the Act,

• value of the money or the fair market value of other asset on the date of such receipt shall be deemed to be the full value of the consideration received or accruing as a result of the transfer of the capital asset; and

• the balance in the capital account of the specified person in the books of accounts of the specified entity at the time of its dissolution or reconstitution shall be deemed to be the cost of acquisition.

The balance in the capital account of the specified person in the books of account of the specified entity is to be calculated without taking into account increase in the capital account of the specified person due to revaluation of any asset or due to self- generated goodwill or any other self-generated asset.

For the purposes of these two sub-sections,-

• specified person” is proposed to be defined as a person who is partner of a firm or member of other association of persons or body of individuals (not being a company or a cooperative society), in any previous year;

• “specified entity” is proposed to be defined as a firm or other association of persons or body of individuals (not being a company or a cooperative society);and

• “self-generated goodwill” and “self –generated assets” are proposed to be defined as goodwill or asset, as the case may be, which has been acquired without incurring any cost for purchase or which has been generated during the course of the business or profession.

Consequential amendment is also proposed in section 48 of the Act to provide that in case of specified entity, the amount included in the total income of such specified entity under sub-section (4A) of section 45 which is attributable to the capital asset being transferred, shall be reduced from the full value of the consideration to compute income charged under the head “capital gains”. This is to be calculated in the manner to be prescribed later. This is to mitigate the double taxation which may have happened but for this provision in a situation where an asset which was revalued and for which income under the proposed sub-section (4A) of section 45 of the Act was brought to tax is transferred subsequently by the specified entity.

These amendments will be effective from the 1st April, 2021 and will accordingly apply to the assessment year 2021-22 and subsequent assessment years.
