TAX DEDUCTED AT SOURCE(TDS) ON DIVIDEND

As you may be aware that the Finance Act, 2020 abolished the Dividend Distribution Tax (DDT) regime w.e.f. April 1, 2020 and introduced the system of dividend taxation under which the Corporation would be required to deduct tax at source (TDS), in respect of payment of dividend to its shareholders, resident as well as non-resident, if so approved at the ensuing AGM. The rate of TDS to be applied by the Corporation would depend upon the status of the recipient and is explained herein below:

  • (i) Resident shareholders:

    In case of resident shareholders, section 194 of the Income-Tax Act, 1961 (I-T Act) provides mandate for withholding tax @ 10% on dividend income. In absence of Permanent Account Number (PAN), TDS rate of 20% will apply.

    The Central Board of Direct Taxes issued a Press Release dated May 13, 2020 stating that TDS rates on the amount paid or credited to residents during the period from May 14, 2020 to March 31, 2021 has been reduced by 25%. Thus, in case of resident shareholders, withholding tax @ 7.5% (instead of 10%) on dividend income shall apply under Section 194 of the I-T Act. It is also clarified that there shall be no reduction in rates of TDS, where the tax is required to be deducted at higher rate due to non-furnishing of PAN with the Corporation/Depository Participant..

    Resident shareholder, being an individual, whose total dividend income in a financial year exceeds ₹5,000 and who wish to receive dividend without deduction of tax at source may submit a declaration in Form No. 15G/15H, in original to the Corporation at its Registered Office.
