Giesecke & Devrient [India] Pvt Ltd. Vs ACIT (ITAT Delhi)
To recapitulate, the DDT is levy on the dividend distributed by the payer company, being an additional tax is covered by the definition of ‘Tax’ as defined u/s 2(43) of the Act which is covered by the charging section 4 of the Act and charging section itself is subject to the provisions of the Act which would include section 90 of the Act.
- In our humble opinion, the liability to DDT under the Act which falls on the company may not be relevant when considering applicability of rates of dividend tax set out in the tax treaties. The generally accepted principles relating to interpretation of treaties in the light of object of eliminating double taxation, in our view does not bar the application of tax treaties to DDT.
