Notes on Clauses:

Clause 84 of the Bill seeks to amend section 197A of the Income-tax Act relating to no deduction to be made in certain cases.

Sub-sections (1A) and (1C) of the aforesaid section provide that no deduction of tax shall be made under the sections referred to in the said sub-sections, if the individuals referred to in the said subsections furnish to the persons responsible for paying any income of the nature referred to in specified sections, a declaration in writing in duplicate in the prescribed form and verified in the prescribed manner to the effect that the tax on his estimated total income of the previous year in which such income is to be included in computing his total income will be nil. 

It is proposed to amend the said sub-sections to give reference of section 194-I therein so as to provide that payments in the nature of rent may be allowed to be received without deduction of tax.

This amendment will take effect from 1st June, 2016.
