*Aggregation rule is not applicable for above transaction type i.e. Rs. 2,00,000 to be consider only for single transaction entered by Assesse in which he receive amount in Cash only.

Section 206C- Tax Collected at Source:

TCS is the Tax Collected at Source by the seller (collector) from the buyer (collectee)”. Every person, being a seller, shall collect tax at source (TCS) from the buyer of goods specified in section 206 C (1).

Finance Act, 2016 imposed TCS on sale of goods or services on receiving consideration in cash with effect from 2016, June 1. Finance Act 2016 has made the following amendments in section 206C of the Act: –

In order to reduce the quantum of cash transaction in sale of any goods and services and for curbing the flow of unaccounted money in the trading system and to bring high value transactions within the tax net, it is proposed to amend the Section 206C of Income Tax Act,1961 to provide that the seller shall collect the tax at the rate of one per cent(i.e. 1% of sale value) from the purchaser on –

– Sale of motor vehicle of the value exceeding ten lakh rupees (Where amount is received by cash, cheque or any other mode); or

– Sale in cash of any goods (other than bullion and jewellery), or providing of any services (other than payments on which tax is deducted at source under Chapter XVII-B) exceeding two lakh rupees. (Amount of consideration is received in cash or partly in cash only).

(In above even if part payment is been made in cash than TCS will be collected on Full amount)

Note: The limit of Rs.2 lakh would apply for each transaction or bill of purchase or expense separately, and therefore, though all the transactions put together for the year may exceed the limit, if each transaction of purchase or expense is below Rs.2 lakh, the provisions of TCS would not apply.

TAX AUDIT REPORT (3CD):

Clause 31 of Reporting seeking particulars of receipts or payments made in cash or cheque or bank draft (not being account payee cheque or account payee bank draft) exceeding the limit specified4 in section 269ST of the Act. Auditors require to report details of all such receipt or payment to Taxation Authority.

Clause 42 of Reporting require Form No. 61A (SFT by specified reporting persons) and Form No. 61B (Statement of Reportable Account by prescribed reporting financial institution, as per section 285BA of the Act). Auditors are require to report all those transaction, which are not reported under Form no. 61A/61B.

*****Sec 269ST will applicable when amount receive otherwise than by account payee cheque or an account bank draft or use of electronic clearing system through a bank account. However, Sec 285BA and Sec 206C (TCS provision) will be applicable on cash receipt basis only.

There is myth among various Stakeholders that the limit of Rs 2,00,000, calculated on aggregate basis. Actually it is not, 2 Lac limit as per above all Provision is to be computed majorly on single transaction basis.
