ub clause (i) of Rule 28AA (1) refers to the average rate of tax as determined by the total tax payable on estimated income as reduced by advance tax and TDS as a % of the payment referred to in section 197 for which application has been made. Sub clause (ii) refers to the average of the average rates of tax paid by the assessee in the last 3 years. Hence in the present case sub clause (ii) will not apply and sub clause (i) will apply. Failure of assessee to file e-TDS return may result in independent consequence in law including penal consequences under section 271 but does not justify rejection of an application filed for lower deduction of tax under sec 197.
The assessee was engaged in the business of marine dredging and port construction. It was awarded a contract at Visakhapatnam Port Trust. For the purpose of executing the contract of dredging the assessee hired equipment from MA, Netherlands. During the relevant AYs, the assessee made payments to “MA” in respect of usage of the equipment. The AO was of the view that the equipment hired by the company constituted PE of the Netherland entity, MAin India. The AO held the assessee to be in default within the meaning of section 201 since it had not deducted tax at source u/s 195.

A recent circular issued by the Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT), Circular No. 2/2011 [ F. No. 385/25/2010-IT(B)] (new Circular) dated 27 April 2011, outline the procedure for refund of excess payment of tax deducted at source (TDS) from payments to residents. The new Circular is applicable for refunds pertaining to the period up to 31 March 2010. The procedure for refunds for the period from 1 April 2010 is governed by a specific provision in the Indian Tax Laws (ITL) dealing with centralized processing of quarterly TDS statements. The refund for the period after 1 April 2010 will be granted based on data furnished in the statements, subject to rectification of apparent inconsistencies, without the requirement of a separate claim for refund.
If the taxpayer was not required to deduct tax at source and could not be declared assessee in default, the question whether the payment was in the nature of fees for technical services or in the nature of reimbursement for the expenses incurred or whether the Tax Treaty overrides the provisions of the ITA, need not be gone into.
