Case Law Details
In respect of TDS not deducted by Assesee on Interest Income of Trust which was disclosed in his return of Income by deductee Trust and on which taxes alongwith interest been paid by deductee trust it was held by ITAT that In respect of levy of interest under Section 201(1A) of the Act the interest is to be computed for the period from the date from which the tax was deductable to the date of filing of the return by the deductee (VTU). This is because once any income is liable for TDS then in the hands of the deductee no interest under Section 234A, 234B & 234C can be levied in respect of such income. Therefore till such income is disclosed by the deductee in its return the liability of the tax rests on the deductor. Once the deductee has filed his return disclosing such income then for such return to become valid the taxes of such return should have been paid and the liability in respect of such taxes and the credit for such taxes goes to the deductee only.
