“Every person, being a seller, who receives any amount in cash
as consideration for sale of bullion 35[***] or jewellery, or any

receipt of such amount in cash, collect from the buyer, a sum
equal to one per cent of sale consideration as income-tax, if
such consideration,
That Means : Invoice value , irrespective some portion may be
received in other mode than cash
13
14. IF CONSIDERATION OF AMOUNT FOR GOODS
SOLD/PROVISION OF SERVICE, DIRECTLY DEPOSITED BY
CUSTOMER IN THE BANK ACCOUNT OF SELLER??
Yes, then TCS provision is applicable, as amount received in
cash but deposited in bank.
Does receipt of bearer cheque or cheque which is
crossed without the words “account payee” amount
to receiving consideration in cash?
Since Section 206 (1D) uses the words cash, and not “otherwise
than by crossed account payee cheque or bank drafts” like in other
provisions, it would appear that bearer cheque or cheques crossed
without the words “account payee” would not be regarded as “cash”.
This matter also needs CBDT’s clarification. 14
15. Whether TCS is applicable where goods are exchanged
under Barter System [say Motor Vehicle is exchanged
for another Motor Vehicle]
Since TCS is applicable only to receipt of cash as
consideration for sale, TCS provisions u/s 206C(1D) shall not
apply where payment is received through exchange of goods.
But provided if after exchange, certain amount is received in
cash, TCS provision will be applicable and therefore tax @
1% to be collected on entire Invoice Value.
15
16. COLLECTION OF TCS TO BE ON RECEIPT BASIS OR ON
INVOICE BASIS?
Act Says – “Every person being a seller,…………….at the time of
receipt of such amount, collect from the buyer…………” – Sub
Section 1D
Collection of TCS to be on Receipt basis; no regards to when
Invoice raised.
In case Invoice generated before applicability of law
and amount received in cash after June, 2016;
whether TCS provision will be applicable?
No liability arises to collect TCS; as event arises (Sale of
Goods/Provision of Service) already before applicability of
law, no need to collect tax at source along with amount
received for sale consideration during the period, law became
effective. 16
17. Limit of Rs. 2,00,000/- will be considered on amount
inclusive of Tax or exclusive of Tax?
Based on the reading of the provisions, it is inferred that, for
Limit amount will be considered inclusive of VAT/Service Tax
i.e. Sales Consideration
Rate of 1% for collection of TCS to be charged on Value
inclusive of Tax or exclusive?
Act – “…….a sum equal to one percent of the Sale
Consideration as income tax”.+
TCS to be collected on Value inclusive of VAT/Service Tax i.e. on
our Invoice Amount.
17
18. Discount given to buyer/service provider will be
considered or not?
TCS to be collected on Invoice Value (which is after deducting
discount), which means discount to be considered, if and only if
discount is given on Invoice value, in case is given through any
mode, say by raising credit note discount will not be
considered.
If bill raised, for two different goods sold/two
different services provided and single bill raised,
whose value exceeds Rs. Two Lakh, whether TCS
provision will be applicable
Yes, TCS is to be collected, as the seller/service provider create
a single invoice, it can be for two different goods/services. So
even though the individual value do not exceed Rs. Two Lakhs,
but if the invoice amount exceeds Rs. 2,00,000, then TCS is to
be collected from customers.
18
19. Whether TCS to be collected, in case amount on which
TDS not deducted does not exceed Rs. 2,00,000/-?
Yes, Since Invoice amount exceeds and there is some cash
payment involved.
TDS Provisions applicable on part of the amount only,
then TCS is to be collected? If yes, on what amount?
Example – Service provided of Rs. 2,50,000; from service receiver Rs. 2,00,000
received after deduction of TDS on such amount and rest Rs. 50,000 received
in cash from service receiver.
TCS is to be collected on Rs. 50,000/- at the rate of 1%, therefore from
service receiver Rs. 50,500 (50000+500) to be collected.
19
20. TDS Provisions applicable on part of the amount only,
then TCS is to be collected? If yes, on what amount?
Example – Service provided of Rs. 2,50,000; and Rs. 2,00,000 received
after deduction of TDS on such amount and rest Rs. 50,000 received in
cheque, from service receiver;
no need to collect TCS.
Example – Service provided of Rs. 2,50,000; and Rs. 2,00,000 received
after deduction of TDS on such amount and rest Rs. 45,000 received in
cash and Rs. 5,000 in cheque, from service receiver.
TCS is to be collected on Rs. 50,000/- at the rate of 1%, therefore from
service receiver Rs. 50,500 (50000+500) to be collected.
20
21. Is the threshold limit Rs. 2,00,000 ; transaction-wise/
person – wise or in aggregate?
Based on the reading of the provisions, it is inferred that the
threshold limit for the purpose of collection of tax of Rs.
2,00,000 in case of sale of goods/provision of services should
be considered transaction-wise and not aggregate of all the
transactions for the year.
Example – In case of Motor Vehicle, to a single customer, 3 old cars are sold of
value Rs. 1,50,000 and Rs. 1,80,000 and Rs. 1,90,000 with three different
invoice raised.
Now here since limit of Rs. 2,00,000 will be considered transaction wise i.e.
Value of each car sold though different invoice, and in above said example no
Invoice Value (i..e value of old car) exceed Rs. 2,00,000. Therefore, no liability
to collect Tax at Source arises.
21
22. If motor vehicle sold of value less than Rs. 10,00,000
but more than Rs. 2,00,000 and any amount of sales
consideration received in cash; whether TCS provision
will be applicable?
From reading the provision, clause (iii) of sub section
1D excludes only clause (i) and clause(ii) of such sub
section, which means clause (iii) covers every event of
sale of any goods (i.e. it can be motor vehicle), other
than bullion or jewellery of value more than Rs.
2,00,000 provisions of TCS will be applicable.
22
23. Amount of Sale Consideration received in
parts/stages?
Illustration: Motor vehicle worth 20 lakh is sold and for which
payments arc made in installments, one at the time of booking
and the other at the time of delivery. At the time of booking 5
lakh rupees are paid and 15 lakh rupees are paid at the time of
delivery.
Tax at the rate of 1 % on 5 lakh rupees at the time of booking
and at the rate of I % on remaining 15 lakh rupees at the time
of delivery shall be collected at source.
Similar will be the position with regard to collection of tax at
source under sub-section (1 D) of section 206C.
23
24. In case, motor vehicle of value more that Rs. 2 Lakh
but less than or equal to Rs. Ten Lakh, financed and
part amount received from Financer and some
amount in cash from buyer, when and how TCS to be
collected?
Tax is to be collected at the rate of 1% on booking amount at
the time of booking and rest amount of TCS i.e. 1% on sales
consideration, after deducting TCS collected at the time of
booking;
but in Finance case, part of the amount is received from
Financer, here at the time of receiving margin money (before
receiving money from Financer) from buyer tax at the rate of
1% can be collected, considering practical situation.
24
25. In case any amount received, refunded to
buyer/service receiver after payment of TCS to
Government, in the event service being not provided/
or sold goods returned?
Buyer/service receiver, amount refundable can be amount
agreed between seller/service provider and buyer/service
receiver, in respect of Goods sold/Provision of Service, not
amount collected from buyer/service receiver for TCS can be
refunded to buyer/service receiver, as tax collected from
customer would being already paid to Government and in Act
there is no provision of refund of TCS deposit or to adjust such
TCS deposit, only provision for TDS is specified.
So practically, it would not be possible to refund tax to
buyer/service receiver on cancellation of services to be
provided or return of goods of value after depositing it with
Government. 25
26. “ Every person, being a seller, who receives any
amount as consideration for sale of a motor vehicle
of the value exceeding ten lakh rupees, shall at the
time of receipt of such amount, collect from the
buyer, a sum equal to one percent of the sale
consideration as income tax.
– Sub Sec. 1F New of Section 206C.
