TDS u/s 194C read with section 40(a)(ia) - the legislator provided relaxation to the assessee by inserting the 2nd proviso to section 40(a)(ia) on account of failure to deduct if it fulfill the condition prescribed under proviso to section 201(1) of the Act i.e. furnishing a certificate from accountant in from 26A. To our understanding the duty cast on the assessee cannot be transferred to revenue. If such burden transferred to revenue then the importance of provision of tax deduction at source will be of no relevance. Therefore the alternate contention of the assessee is dismissed. Hence the ground of appeal of the assessee is partly allowed. - AT
