Important Points for Section 194B
No TDS on bonus or commission payable to lottery agents: We understand it with an easy example as follows.
Example: Mr A wins a lottery price of Rs.2,00,000. A sum of Rs.10,000 is deducted for payment to the lottery agent. Now, the tax will be deducted on Rs.1,90,000/- after allowing the bonus/commission paid to the agent.
No TDS of prizes on unsold/unclaimed lottery tickets in the possession of the agent: It is treated as income from business and does not constitute the winning of lotteries. Hence, it is not subject to TDS.
