Notification 80/2026 Hai Kya?
CBDT ne Notification No. 80/2026 [F. No. 275/19/2026-IT(B)] issue karke ye clarify kiya hai ki International Financial Services Centre (IFSC) mein registered eligible units ko diye jaane wale kuch specified payments jaise interest, dividend, professional fees, commission aur brokerage ab Income-tax Act, 2025 ke tehat TDS se exempt honge. Ye chhoot Act ke Section 393 ke under aati hai, aur deduction ka fayda Section 147 se link kiya gaya hai.
Simple shabdon mein: agar payer (jo payment kar raha hai) kisi eligible IFSC unit ko in specified categories mein payment kar raha hai, toh usse ab TDS kaatne ki zaroorat nahi bas ek declaration process follow karna hoga.
Kaunsi 14 Categories Ki IFSC Units Is Chhoot Ke Dayre Mein Aati Hain
Notification ne 14 tarah ki IFSC entities ko notify kiya hai jinke liye ye relief available hai:
| # | IFSC Entity Category |
|---|---|
| 1 | Banking Units |
| 2 | IFSC Insurance Intermediary Offices |
| 3 | Finance Companies |
| 4 | Finance Units |
| 5 | Fund Management Entities |
| 6 | Broker Dealers |
| 7 | Investment Advisers |
| 8 | Registered Distributors |
| 9 | Custodians |
| 10 | Credit Rating Agencies |
| 11 | Investment Bankers |
| 12 | Debenture Trustees |
| 13 | International Trade Finance Service (ITFS) Units |
| 14 | FinTech Entities |
Har category ke liye exempt payments alag-alag hain. Jaise ki Banking Units ke case mein, External Commercial Borrowings/loans par interest income, professional fees, referral fees, brokerage income aur factoring-forfaiting services par commission ye sab TDS se bahar aate hain. Finance Companies aur Finance Units ko external commercial borrowings ke interest, dividend income, aur factoring-forfaiting commission par chhoot milti hai.
Payee Ko Karna Kya Hoga — Form 1(N) Declaration
Ye chhoot automatic nahi hai payee (yaani IFSC unit) ko payer ke paas ek statement-cum-declaration file karni hogi, jise Form No. 1(N) kaha gaya hai. Is form mein payee ko batana hoga:
- Kaunse 20 consecutive tax years ke liye woh Section 147 ke tehat deduction claim karna chahta hai
- Uske paas kaunsa permission ya registration hai
- Kis tax year se option exercise kiya ja raha hai
- Initial tax year jisse deduction pehli baar claim kiya gaya tha
Ye declaration Income-tax Act 2025 ke Section 265 ke tehat authorised person dwara sign hona chahiye — matlab wahi vyakti jo return of income sign karne ke liye eligible hai.
Payer Ki Zimmedari Kya Rahegi
Ek baar payer ko ye declaration mil jaaye, uske baad woh us payee ko kiye gaye notified payments par TDS nahi kaat sakta. Lekin isse payer ki reporting duty khatam nahi hoti usse in payments ki details, jin par TDS nahi kata, Section 397(3)(b) ke tehat prescribed TDS statement mein report karni hongi, Income-tax Rules 2026 ke Rule 219 ke saath.
Jaldi Mein Ye Points Yaad Rakhein
- Notification effective maani jayegi 1 April 2026 se (retrospective effect, kisi ke liye nuksaandayak nahi)
- Chhoot sirf un 20 consecutive tax years ke liye hai jo payee ne declare kiye hain
- Declared period ke baahar kisi bhi year mein payer ko normal tarike se TDS kaatna hi hoga
- Payer ko har quarter mein non-deduction ki details statement mein report karni zaroori hai
- Ye chhoot Income-tax Act, 2025 ke transition ka hissa hai, jo purane Section 194 series ke provisions ki jagah le raha hai
Ye Kyu Matter Karta Hai
GIFT City ko global financial hub banane ki koshish mein ye ek aur step hai. Pehle bhi 2025 mein IFSC units ke liye TDS relief diya gaya tha, lekin us waqt ye 10 tax years tak limited tha. Ab Income-tax Act, 2025 ke naye framework mein ye window badhakar 20 consecutive tax years kar di gayi hai — jo long-term financial planning aur compliance ke liye kaafi zyada flexibility deta hai.
Jo bhi businesses IFSC units ko payments karte hain chahe woh interest ho, professional fees ho ya brokerage unhe apne vendor/payee documentation process mein ye Form 1(N) declaration shaamil karna hoga, taaki compliance mein koi gap na rahe.
