In the present case, the dividend income is admittedly taxed in the hands of the assessee/ shareholder. Once the dividend income is assessed in the hands of the assessee / share-holder, the proviso to Section 199 of the Act would have no application and consequently denying the credit of TDS to the assessee / shareholder does not arise at all. The first proviso to Section 199 read with Rule 30A apply inter alia, where the dividend income is to be taxed in the hands of a person other than the shareholder. As the case of the assessee falls in the first part of Section 199, the assessee could not be denied credit of TDS.
