lntroduction
Learning objectives
. Recognise different classes of income from where tax are deducted or collected at source.
. Mention the time limit and manner of payment of tax deducted at source.
. Explain the result of deduction or not deduction of ux at source where deduction is
required by law.
. Define the computation, estimation and payment procedures of advance tax.
. Mention the consequences of payment or not payment of advance tax.
Practical significance
There are two methods of collecting taxes, one is direct method and another is tax deducted at
source. The ordinary method of collection is direct collection of tax from the assessee.
Deduction of tax at source is provided for in cenain specified cases. The deducted tax shall be
credited accordingly with the final payment of tax. lf default is made in the deduction of taxes at
source, the tax may be collected from the assessee directly, and further the person who is liable
to deduct but has not deducred the tax under this section, may be held personally liable and
treated as an assessee in default in respect of the tax.
Depending on assessed or provisionally assessed income, an assessee may require to pay advance
tax. In some cases the new assessee also require to pay advance tax. The calculation of amount,
rate, esrimation and installment of advance tax are guided by the Ordinance. The assessee shall
get the credit of advance tax. In case of excess or deficit payment of advance tax an assessee may
receive or pay the inrerest from or to the Government. Tax paid in advance shall be adlusted at
the time of tax payment on the basis of the return.
Stop and think
There are so many sources where tax is required to be deducted or collected at the time of
payment. Do you think how both tax deducted at source and advance payment oftax are madel
Working context
In corporate sectors, normally there are many payments made every day where deduction of tax
ar source are required by tax law. In some cases the accountants are asking for advice on how
and when the deduction need to be done. The service for estimation and calculation of advance
tax also reguired by some assessee. Accountants can provide the service to their clients on tax
deduction at source and due paymenr of advance tax so that the clients can avoid any penalty for
non-compliance of tax law in this regard. .
Detailed knowledge about the payment of tax before assessment in compliance with tax law can
help accountants to support their clients significantly.

Answer
A-tea company's 40% income is business and 60% income is agricultural under Rule 31. No
1lvance tax is payable on agricultural income. Since business income of'the tea company is Tk.
200'000 (40%), the company is not liable to pay advance tax for the assessmenr year ZOtO-l l.
Worked Example.6
A Ltd paid excess advance tax of Tk. 500,000 than the tax demand as per assessment completed
on 30.08.2008 for the assessment year 20l0- | l.
B Ltd's short fall in payment of advance tax amounted to Tk. 500,000 as per assessment
completed on 30.08.2008 for the assessmenr year 20lO- | l.
Calculate the interest allowable and simple interest payable u/s 72 and 73 respectively.
Answer
Although both the assessments were completed on the same date and rate of interest is also
same ( I 0%), there is a difference in the calculation of interesq which is shown below:
a) lnterest allowable by the Govt. uls 72 = | 0% on Tk. 5O0,OOO from 0 1.07.08 to 30.08.08
=Tk 6,667
b) Simple interest payable to the Govc uls73 =107. on Tk. 500,000 from 01.07.07 to 30.08.08
=Tk 46,667
From the above examples, it is evident that there is a clear discrimination in allowing interest
payable by the government and simple interest chargeable by the Government. Because interest
is allowed from | 't July of the assessment year while simple interesr is charged from ll July of the
income year.
It is to be noted that if on appeal, a revised assessment is made and consequently tax demand is
reduced, fresh calculation of interest is required to be made.
Note:
Regarding charge of simple interest u/s 70 and 73 students should note thar assessees paying
advance tax on the basis of latest assessed income satislies the condition of payment of advance
tax- Those assesses who pay advance tax on the basis of estimates and if the advance tax
Payment is less than 75% of the tax demand, then simple interesr is payable on the difference
between tax demand and advance taxes paid.

Every person who is required to file a return u/s 75, 77, 78, 89(21,9 | (3), or 93( | ) shall pay rhe
