Circular No. 6 of 2002-Income Tax Dividend Income from shares of Indian companies and income from units of Mutual Funds have been made taxable in the hands of share/unitholders by the Finance Act, 2002. For small investors investing in equity, a threshold limit of Rs. 1,000 was provided for the purpose of TDS. Let us for senior citizens and for investors raise the threshold limit to Rs. 2,500. Thus, no tax will be deductible in respect of dividend up to Rs. 2,500, received from each company, or a mutual fund. With the computerisation of the Income-tax Department, data on TDS will be synchronised with the income ‘returned’ by the assessee for better tax administration and compliance.
