Tax Collection at Source (TCS) onon sale of certain minerals

Mining sector is an important segment of Indian economy but the trading of minerals remained largely unregulated resulting in non-reporting or under-reporting of trading in minerals trading transactions for the taxation purpose. In order to collect tax at the earliest point of time and also to improve reporting mechanism of transactions in mining sector, it is proposed that tax at the rate of 1% shall be collected by the seller from the buyer of the following minerals:

(a)  Coal;

(b)  Lignite; and

(c)  Iron ore.

However, the seller shall also not collect tax on sale of the said minerals if the same are purchased by the buyer for personal consumption. Further, the seller of these minerals shall not collect tax if the buyer declares that these minerals are to be utilized

for the purposes of manufacturing, processing or producing articles or things.

This amendment will take effect from 1st  July, 2012.

    Dear Sir,
    One of my client named Rahul is dealing in coal at Moradabad. He make the purchases from a dealer in
    Ayodhya. He applied for the reduction of TCS. But the Income Tax Officer advised him that the TCS is not applicable in his case. But refused to give some thing in writing.
    However he referred the matter to his Brother in law, who is a Chartered Accountant at Delhi.
    His reply is being quoted by me as under:
    “Dear Rahul,

    Pl see the circular in the link below. Hope it can resolve your query. As I gather from your write up yours is a second sale from the party from whom you are purchasing and therefore no TCS applies in your case.

    law.incometaxindia.gov.in/DitTaxmann/IncomeTaxActs/2009ITAct/sec_206c.htm

    AJ”

    The circular referred above is being enclosed by me in a separate file with this letter.
    I would like to have your considered opinion in the matter
