Dear Customer,
The Government of India (GoI) has introduced section 206AB in the Income-tax Act, 1961 (Act), which mandates higher Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) in case of non-filing of income tax returns (ITR) by a taxpayer for two immediately preceding financial years (FY). The new provisions are applicable from July 1, 2021.
In case of failure to file ITR by a taxpayer, the TDS rate applicable will be higher than the below:
- Twice the rate specified under the Act; or
- Twice the rate or rates in force; or
- TDS @ 5%
Please note, Shreejee Electronics Private Limited (PAN: AAACS1537P) has duly filed its ITRs for FY 2018-19 and FY 2019-20.
| Financial Year | ITR Form No. | ITR Filing Date | Acknowledgement No. |
| 2018-2019 | ITR-6 | Oct 30, 2019 | 235336171301019 |
| 2019-2020 | ITR-6 | Jan 11, 2021 | 200804141110121 |
Accordingly, provisions of section 206AB would not apply to Shreejee Electronics Private Limited; hence, higher TDS should not be deducted while making payments to us.
Further, the company shall be filing its ITR for FY 2020-21 in due course as per the timeline stipulated in section 139(1) of the Act.
