Section 206AB and 206CCA are the latest additions to the Indian Income Tax Act, causing a stir among taxpayers. But fear not! In this blog post, we&#8217;ll break down these sections and demystify their complexities, using a conversational tone that aims to make the information more accessible and easier to understand. So, let&#8217;s dive in and unravel the mysteries of Section 206AB and 206CCA!<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Are_Sections_206AB_and_206CCA\"><\/span><b>What Are Sections 206AB and 206CCA?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Section 206AB and 206CCA were introduced in the Income Tax Act to ensure that certain specified persons, who have not filed their income tax returns for a specified period or have filed with inadequate tax payments, face higher tax deductions at source (TDS) or tax collected at source (TCS). These provisions were enacted to encourage compliance and prompt taxpayers to fulfill their tax obligations in a timely manner.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-5456\" src=\"https:\/\/aktassociates.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Screenshot-2023-06-23-170147-e1687520022549.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"401\" srcset=\"https:\/\/aktassociates.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Screenshot-2023-06-23-170147-e1687520022549.png 713w, https:\/\/aktassociates.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Screenshot-2023-06-23-170147-e1687520022549-300x172.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Applicability_of_Section_206AB_and_206CCA\"><\/span><b>Applicability of Section 206AB and 206CCA<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Section 206AB applies to individuals and Hindu Undivided Families (HUFs) who have not filed their income tax returns for the previous two years and the total tax deducted or collected at source from them is Rs. 50,000 or more in each of these two years. On the other hand, Section 206CCA is applicable to non-residents and foreign companies who have not filed their income tax returns for the previous two years and the total tax deducted or collected at source from them is Rs. 50,000 or more in each of these two years.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The provisions of Section 206AB and 206CCA are applicable from July 1, 2021. It&#8217;s important to note that these sections apply in addition to the existing provisions of TDS and TCS, and the higher rates mentioned in these sections override the regular rates prescribed by the Income Tax Act.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Consult CA Arun Tiwari for more info at \ud83d\udcde\u00a0 8080088288 or <\/b><a href=\"mailto:cs@aktassociates.com\"><b>cs@aktassociates.com<\/b><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/pages.razorpay.com\/akt-nri-tax-consulting\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-4956 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/aktassociates.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/87987.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/aktassociates.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/87987.png 700w, https:\/\/aktassociates.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/87987-300x64.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Higher_TDSTCS_Rates_under_Section_206AB_and_206CCA\"><\/span><b>Higher TDS\/TCS Rates under Section 206AB and 206CCA<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Under Section 206AB, if an individual or HUF falls under its purview, the applicable TDS rate will be the higher of the following: twice the rate specified in the relevant provisions of the Income Tax Act or twice the rate or rates in force, as per the Finance Act. This means that if the normal TDS rate is 10%, it will be doubled to 20% under Section 206AB.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Similarly, under Section 206CCA, the applicable TCS rate for non-residents and foreign companies will be higher than twice the rate specified in the relevant provisions of the Income Tax Act or twice the rate or rates in force, as per the Finance Act.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"An_Exception_to_Higher_TDSTCS_Rates\"><\/span><b>An Exception to Higher TDS\/TCS Rates<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While Section 206AB and 206CCA impose higher TDS\/TCS rates, they do provide some relief.

If the PAN is available and valid, the higher rates will not be applicable. However, if the PAN is not available or has been declared invalid, the provisions of Section 206AB and 206CCA will come into play.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-5457 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/aktassociates.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Screenshot-2023-06-23-170603.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"661\" height=\"384\" srcset=\"https:\/\/aktassociates.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Screenshot-2023-06-23-170603.png 661w, https:\/\/aktassociates.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Screenshot-2023-06-23-170603-300x174.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 661px) 100vw, 661px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Practical_Tips_to_Avoid_Higher_TDSTCS_Rates\"><\/span><b>Practical Tips to Avoid Higher TDS\/TCS Rates<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now that we have a better understanding of Section 206AB and 206CCA, let&#8217;s explore some practical tips to ensure you don&#8217;t fall into the higher TDS\/TCS bracket:<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>File your income tax returns on time:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Timely filing of income tax returns is crucial to avoid the applicability of Section 206AB and 206CCA.
