Under existing provisions of section 80G, deduction is not allowed in respect of donation made of any sum exceeding Rs.10,000, if the same is not paid by any mode other than cash.
Changes in Tax rates & Surcharge: Existing Income Tax rates for Individual or Hindu undivided family or every association of persons or body of individuals, whether incorporated or not, or every artificial juridical person having income of Rs. 2.5 lakhs to Rs. 5 lakhs is reduced to 5% from the present rate of 10%.
In order to discourage the cash transactions and to bring transparency in the source of funding to political parties , it is proposed to amend the provisions of section 13A to provide for additional conditions for availing the benefit of the said section which are as under:
It is proposed to amend section 44AD of the Act to reduce the existing rate of deemed total income of eight per cent. to six per cent in respect of the amount of such total turnover or gross receipts received by an account payee cheque or account payee bank draft or use of electronic clearing system through a bank account during the previous year or before the due date specified in sub-section (1) of section 139 in respect of that previous year.
Budget 2017 proposes ro reduce existing threshold of cash payment to a person from twenty thousand rupees to ten thousand rupees in a single day; i.e any payment in cash above ten thousand rupees to a person in a day, shall not be allowed as deduction in computation of Income from Profits and gains of business or profession
FM reduced rate of taxation from existing 10 per cent to 5 per cent for individual assesses between income of Rs 2.5 lakhs to Rs 5 lakhs. This would reduce tax liability of all persons below Rs 5 lakh income either to zero (with rebate) or 50 per cent of their existing liability.
In a significant step to cleanse the system of funding of political parties, Shri Jaitley said that donations to political parties can soon be made by purchasing electoral bonds from authorized banks. The Finance Minister said that the Government will soon frame a Scheme in this regard and an amendment is being proposed to the Reserve Bank of India Act to enable the issuance of electoral bonds. He said that a donor could purchase bonds from authorised banks against cheque and digital payments only. These bonds shall be redeemable in the designated account of a registered political party within the prescribed time limit from issuance of bond, he added.
In order to promote ease of doing business, it is proposed to amend section 194J to reduce the rate of deduction of tax at source to two per cent. from ten per cent. in case of payments received or credited to a payee, being a person engaged only in the business of operation of call center.
It is proposed to insert sub-section (3A) in section 71 to provide that set-off of loss under the head Income from house property”against any other head of income shall be restricted to two lakh rupees for any assessment year.
The existing provisions of sub-section (4C) of section 139 mandate filing of return by certain entities which are exempt from the levy of income-tax.
