TCS means collection of tax at source by the seller (collector) from the buyer (collectee/payee) of the goods (specified u/s 206C of Income-tax Act, 1961, like timber obtained under forest lease, scrap, any other forest produce not being timber or tendu leaves etc.,). For e.g. if purchase value of goods is Rs.10,000/-, the buyer will pay an amount of Rs.10,000/- + X (X being the value of TCS as prescribed under Income-tax Act, 1961) to the seller.

In the budget 2012, our Finance Minister Mr Pranab Mukherjee announced a series of proposals which intended to check tax evasion, improve tax compliance and tax collection. The most important among these proposals are: GAAR, TDS on immovable property purchases, Excise duty on gold jewellery etc. Today in the Budget bill discussion in the Parliament, the Finance Minister amended some of the proposals that he announced in the budget day. Here is a synopsis of the original proposals, the changes and the effects of such changes.
To curb the flow of unaccounted money in the bullion & jewellery trade, the Finance Bill proposes the collection of tax at source (TCS) by the seller at the rate of 1 per cent of the sale amount from the buyer for all cash transactions exceeding Rs.2 lakh. Responding to the representations made by the jewellery industry that this would cause undue hardship, I propose to raise the threshold limit for TCS on cash purchases of jewellery to Rs.5 lakh from the present Rs.2 lakh. The threshold limit for TCS on cash purchase of bullion shall be retained at Rs.2 lakh. However, it is being clarified that bullion will not include any coin or other article weighing 10 gms or less.
It is proposed that TCS provisions shall be made applicable on sale of minerals being coal or lignite or iron ore at the rate of 1%.

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.
