Aryan, a resident individual engaged in the retail trade of auto parts through various stores across Delhi-NCR, had total turnover of 15 crores during the financial year 2023-24. The following data is furnished relating to the financial year ended 31-3-2025: (i) He purchased goods for 105 lakhs (excluding GST @ 18%) on 21.05.2024 from Diva LLP, a limited liability partnership firm resident in India. Out of these purchases, goods worth 5 lakhs (excluding GST) were returned on 20.07.2024 due to quality issues for which Diva LLP refunded the money on 20.02.2025. Assume that the turnover of Diva LLP during the financial year 2023-24 was 8 crores. (ii) Aryan paid - 77,000 every month to Mr. Kulveer, a resident individual for providing catering services in his shop under a contract. Discuss the TDS/TCS implications in respect of the above-mentioned transactions assuming PAN of all the concerned parties are available.

Suggested Answer and Working Notes:

(i) Mr. Aryan is required to deduct tax at source under section 194Q @0.1% on the purchase of goods exceeding 50lakhs without GST since his turnover for the P.Y. 2023-24 exceeds 10crores. The tax is to be deducted at the time of payment or at the time of credit of such sum to the account of Diva, LLP, whichever is earlier. Accordingly, Aryan has to deduct tax of 5,500, being 0.1% of 55lakhs on 21.5.2024. In case of purchase return of 5lakhs and amount is refunded by Diva LLP, tax deducted of 500 (0.1% of 5lakhs) may be adjusted against the next purchase from Diva LLP. (ii) Since Mr. Aryan paid for catering services exceeding - 30,000 and his turnover for the P.Y. 2023-24 exceeds 1crore, he is liable to deduct tax at source under section 194C @1%. The tax is to be deducted at the time of payment or at the time of credit of such sum to the account of Mr. Kulveer, whichever is earlier. Amount of TDS = 77,000 x 12 x 1% = 9,240
