Section 197 – Certificate of lower deduction or non-deduction of tax at source

December 26, 2009 128018 Views 25 comments Print

I am directed to bring to your notice on the subject of issue of certificates under Section 197. Instruction No- 8/2006 dated 13.10.2006, was issued stating that 197 certificates for lower deduction or nil deduction of TDS u/s 197 are not to be issued indiscriminately and for issue of each certificate, approval of the JCI/Add. CIT concerned need to be taken by the Assessing Officer (AO). Further, a letter of even number dated 6.10.2008 was issued stating that power of issue of certificates under Section 197 would ordinarily be exercised by the officers manning TDS Administration. However, instances are being brought to the notice of Board that the AOs are issuing certificates for lower or non-deduction of tax at source under Section 197 indiscriminately, in contravention of relevant Income Tax Rules and Instructions.

The valuation of shares and specified securities in relation to employee stock option have been brought under Rule 3 itself, and Rules 40C and 40D of the Income-tax Rules will no longer be apply. Consistent with the change in law as regards the point of time (exercise) when such liability has to be determined, the rule now prescribes that the relevant date will be the exercise date (as against the date of vesting considered in Rule 40C and 40D). All other aspects in relation to valuation of stock options in Rule 40C and 40D remain the same even after the amendment.
