‘Aggregated TDS Compliance’ at PAN level for all TANs associated with referenced PAN

S. 195 TDS to be withhold only on share of Non-resident Seller in co-owned property
RBI : Banks to ensure Timely Issue of TDS Certificate to Customers
<> The RBI's purported 'advice' is too mild to be persuasive
enough for its constituents to ‘pull up their socks’ and strictly follow it. To
be precise, even otherwise, any delay beyond the prescribed time limit will clearly be a
violation of the mandate of the tax rule, and by itself should invite the penal
consequence as per the law. As such, if at all the RBI was sincere, what it
should have done on its part, as a regulatory authority, is to issue clear-cut
directions to the effect that, in case of delay the erring bank, in addition to the penal consequence it might
face, also have to face a separate action by the RBI/its Ombudsman, if and when
complained of, on the ground of its having failed to protect the customer's
right and interest, thereby rendering itself guilty of a breach of faith and
trust; also for ‘insufficient’ /deficiency in
service, in disregard of the code of ethics/ conduct already in place.
Also provide for imposing a liability to appropriately and adequately
compensate the customer for the otherwise easily avoidable delay, causing
inconvenience of its own kind. For
reasons commonly known, the buck does
not stop there; in other words, any such directions ought to cover not only the
obligations related to taxation but also all other like areas as well. The
office of the Ombudsman must be adequately strengthened, on healthy lines, for accomplishing the
desired outcome in public interest.
In the context herein, it might be appropriate to bring to
focus the commonly aired and grieved about, the lately growing indiscipline, recalcitrant and irresponsible behaviour /misdemeanour even
among the highly paid officers of the PSBs, not to mention the supposed-to-be-overseeing topmost brasses,
in failing to provide reasonable good service, to the utter discontent
of the customers. It is high time that
the RBI realises that it owes it to the banking customers to
strive its best and bring about a change for a noticeable improvement; and on a war footing , before it is late.

It
has been observed that deductors are wrongly entering the tax amount deducted on
sale of property in 'interest' or 'others' or 'fee' column while making the
e-payment. Accordingly, zero TDS credit will appear in Form 16B

S. 244A: The department is not obliged to pay interest on interest as that is not provided in the law. Sandvik Asia 280 ITR 643 (SC) awarded compensation for inordinate delay on its facts
Xcerpts>
< 5. Since, there was an inordinate delay on the part of the Revenue in refunding the amount due to the assessee this Court had thought it fit that the assessee should be properly and adequately compensated and therefore in paragraph 51 of the judgment, the Court while compensating the assessee had directed the Revenue to pay a compensation by way of interest for two periods, namely; for the Assessment Years 1977-78, 1978-79, 1981-82, 1982-83 in a sum of Rs.40,84,906/- and interest @ 9% from 31.03.1986 to 27.03.1998 and in default, to pay the penal interest @ 15% per annum for the aforesaid period.>
<><> The SC, to go by one’s own perceptive reaction, seems to have adopted a purely technical approach ; in that, court, acting within its judicial powers, cannot read something into a statute, such as ‘interest on interest’, which is not so provided. Nonetheless, the taxpayer’s entitlement to be suitably compensated has not been denied.
For deciding on the question of ‘suitable compensation’ in a given case, however,- that is, for quantifying the fair compensation, as one imagines, perhaps the monetary loss to the party arising as a result of delay in granting interest on overdue refund , would require to be most likely measured only in terms of ‘interest’- even if it to be termed not interest but differently.
At best, or worst, the only area of dispute left open is, whether taxpayer could successfully claim ‘compensation’ in all cases so long as refund has not been granted within the statutory time limit ; that is, not necessarily only if there is an INORDINATE DELAY as in Sandvik’s case (of course, whatever that is taken to mean or is meant to say.)
In short, as envisaged, the debate is bound to go on and on.
Incidentally, as one is expected to be aware, there is another related concept known as ‘pendente lite’ ; on which there has been any amount of litigation in the past, but with no finality as yet. For a firsthand knowledge, one may care to look up the study of case law covered in a published article @, -

CBDT Directs Immediate Issue Of Refunds Due For FY 2011-12
This is the latest in the series of circulars through which the CBDT has , going that extra mile, been good enough to once again urge the authorities down the line not to delay any further but expeditiously settle all the refund claims for the assessment year 2011-12.
The question of interest payable by the government on such refunds has been left open. However, even at the time of issuing the refunds, the AOs (or the CPC in respect of e’filed returns), it is expected, should take care of interest due and include it; as, otherwise, refundees would be subjected to a fresh spate of hassle and hardship in having to take up and pursue separately such claim . to the end of grant of interest.
In case of refunds processed by CPC, the fear is that, unless the system has in place the interest factor in-built appropriately, refund granted may not have interest included automatically.
Rider
Cases where Intimation under section 143 (1) was not sent but the time limit laid down had expired call for a special mention. For, if perceptively considered and strictly construed, in such cases, the residuary provision of clause (b) of sub-section (1) of section 244A,- not clause (a), more particularly, the proviso thereto,-it could be urged, would come into play and interest to be granted accordingly.

Income Tax Department cautioned on use of Mobile applications for Filing on TaxGuru!
Sharing Quick Thoughts:Yes, yes ! If Govt. were to proceed, the utmost Caution is a MUST.
While on the topic of ‘mobile’, or an equally fascinating but ultra -modern topic of ‘e’mail’, have you ever heard or read that interesting character from across the globe by name – David Pogue; if not better do, especially if curious to know the plus or minus of these innovations, read or listen to, at least to pass the time, – provided, of course, have the mind to do so. To get introduced go to >

Now, as for the government, better do the inevitable hard homework, with the active assistance and guidance of the most outstanding experts at large, before venturing to take even a baby step in that direction. Lest, further messing up of the even-now obtaining scenario in inter alia the realm of tax administration might prove a certainty.
