Introduction to Income Tax Act

Taxes are mandatory financial claims by the government on wages, products, administration, exercises or exchanges. Taxes are the basic mode of income for the government, which is used for the welfare of the general population of the state through government strategies, arrangements, and practices. There are references to taxes in ancient writings such as Manusmurti and kautiriya altashastra. It was first started in 1860 to beat the financial crisis of 1857 in India. Thus, it is the Income Tax Act 1961, which is currently implemented in India.

Constitutional Provisions of Taxes in India

The basis of all laws in India is rooted in the Constitution. Under Article 265 of the Constitution, taxes must be collected or collected, except for the powers of law. Under the Constitution there are various provisions that distribute power.

The need for income tax in India

Income tax is a tax on the income of an individual or legal entity. Income tax is the main source of income for the government to perform its functions. The work of government is not only limited to Defence, Law, Order, etc. But it must also carry out activities like welfare and development under areas such as health, education and Rural Development. The government will also have to pay for its own administration. All of these activities require huge finances, which are raised by the collection of taxes.

Purpose of taxation

• Money spent on the development of roads, schools, hospitals, market regulation and legal systems, etc. It is raised by the income generated by the collection of taxes’ Redistribution of resources by richer sections to poorer sections of society.
• Certain products are taxed to eliminate externalities, such as a tobacco tax to discourage smoking
• Subdivision of taxes: direct and indirect taxes.
• Income tax may be a tax imposed on individuals. Real estate and wealth taxes were also direct taxes, but these are now abolished
• Indirect taxes imposed in India are customs duties, central excise taxes, service taxes, sales taxes, and VAT.

For now, the GST has been implemented and all other indirect taxes have been abolished.

Definition

Although income tax as a concept existed in India for many years, James Wilson, the first financial member of India, introduced the first modern Income Tax Act in 1860. "It was just for the advantage of his subjects that he collected taxes from them, because the sun draws moisture from the world and returns thousand times," Kalidas wrote in his epic Raghuvansh.

The Income Tax Act is a comprehensive statute that focuses on the various rules and regulations governing taxation in a country. It provides to collect, manage, collect and collect income tax for the Indian government. It was enacted in 1961.

The tax law contains a complete of 23 chapters and 298 sections, consistent with the official website of the Indian tax Bureau [1]. These different sections correspond to the surface of taxation. The different heads you have to pay income tax include、:

• Salary
• Income from home property
• Capital gay
• Profits and profits from business or profession
• Income from other sources

Every year, the government of India presents its fiscal budget during the month of March. The budget brings various amendments to the Income Tax Act. This change also applies to the tax version. For example, the minister of Finance announced that the personal tax rate of the Rs minimum tax bracket. From 2.5 lakh to 5 lakhs will be reduced from 10% to 5% in fiscal 2017. Similarly, taxes on long-term capital gains (LTCG) were reintroduced in the fiscal 2018 budget. As a result, all profits will be greater than Rs. Lakh from equity and equity investment trusts held for more than 1 year is currently subject to LTCG tax at 10%.

The latest budget presented by the current Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman included the introduction of a new voluntary taxation system with a reduced rate of income tax. These new rates will be available as an option from the 2020-21 financial years.

Such an amendment will be part of the Income Tax Act from April 1, following the approval of the Indian President.

1.2 Concept of Income

Income concept

While the Income Tax Act does not define the term income, Section 2 (24) of the Act describes the various receipts contained under the income range.

• Profits and profits.
• Dividends
• Voluntary donations received by charitable trusts
• The value of any perks or benefit in place of salary.
• Any capital gains.
• Any winnings from the lottery,
• Crossword puzzles and more
• Charging unit

Section 4 of the Income Tax Act, 1961, is the charging section of the law. Therefore, in this section:

1. The rate is prescribed under financial law for all valuation years. Income tax for the previous year should be charged according to the rate given.
2. Taxable income is for the previous year, not the valuation year
3. Total income, calculated in accordance with the provisions of the law, can be levied
4. TDs or advance tax will be charged wherever applicable

Head of income

Income falls under 5 major heads under Section 14 of the act

1. Income from salary
2. Income from home property
3. Capital gains income
4. Profit and profit from business and profession
5. Other sources of income

Agricultural income

Agricultural income is rent or income in cash or in kind derived from the land, which is used for agricultural purposes and the land must be located in India. Income from agriculture should be produced by the cultivator or the beneficiary of the spot rent of its agricultural products, which is suitable for incorporating it into the market.

The income should be obtained from the sale by the cultivator or the rental recipient of its products produced or received by him and cannot carry out any process other than the process of adapting it to the market.

Income that is incurred or deemed to be incurred in India

Income of non-residents or foreign companies is subject to taxation only to the extent that it has occurred in India. However, under Section 9 of the Income Tax Act, other provisions set out criteria as to why certain incomes are considered to occur in India, even though they may actually arise from India.  Business connection–the term business connection is not defined in the act, but various judgments and circulars focus on the meaning of it.

In accordance with the Income Tax Notice No. 23, Examples of non-residents with business connections in India are shown-

• India branch

• The agent appointed for the sale of goods for non-residents.
• Form a subsidiary of a non-resident parent company in India
• Established a factory in India to process raw materials and final products are then exported.
• Financial relationship between resident and non-resident companies’ Residential areas
• The tax code and classification of taxable income earners are the following

Residential status

Three categories of person under taxable law:

• Resident not usually resident
• Non-resident
• Tenants

Resident Person:

There are various tests to determine the residence status of a person:

Test 1-if a person has resided in India for 182 days, not necessarily at once, in the previous year, he is said to be a resident of India.

Test 2-if the person has lived in India for more than 365 days of the previous 4 years and 60 days of the previous year, he is said to be a resident.

Residents who are not ordinary residents –

Individuals are not ordinary residents

Test 1-he has not resided in India for 9 out of 10 prior to that year

Test 2-if the individual has not lived more than 7 days in India in the previous year

Test 3-Hindu not home but the manager meets the above conditions

The company's residential area is the area where it is located.

In accordance with Section 6 (3) of the Income Tax Act, the company is said to be a resident of India if any of the following conditions are met-

• If the company is an Indian company, or
• If the place of effective management is in India for that year.

The place of effective meaning is the place where all important managerial and commercial decisions for the implementation of business are made.

1.3 Residence and Tax Liability

Meaning and importance of residence status

The taxability of an Indian individual depends on his residency status in India for any particular financial year. The term residency status is coined under India's income tax law and should not be confused with the citizenship of an individual in India. The individual may be a citizen of India but may end up being a non-resident for a certain year. Similarly, a foreigner may end up being a resident of India for income tax purposes in a particular year.

It should also be noted that the status of residence of different types of people-individuals, companies, companies, etc. - is determined differently. In this article, we talked about how you can determine the residence status of an individual taxpayer for a particular fiscal year

How to determine the state of housing?

For the purposes of income tax in India, the income tax law of India classifies the person subject to taxation as follows:

a. Resident

b. A resident who is not a regular resident (RNOR)

c. Non-resident (NR)

The taxability varies for each of the above categories of taxpayers. Before entering the taxable object, let's first understand how the taxpayer becomes a resident, RNOR or NR.

1. Resident

Taxpayers can qualify as residents of India if they meet any of the following 2 conditions:

• Annual stay in India more than 182 days or
• Staying in India for the last 4 years is no less than 365 days and no more than 60 days for the relevant fiscal year

If an individual who is a citizen of India or a person of Indian origin leaves India for employment during FY, he is eligible as a resident of India only if he has stayed in India for more than 182 days. Such individuals are allowed to stay in India for a long time of not less than 60 days and less than 182 days. However, from the 2020-21 financial years, for individuals whose gross income (excluding foreign sources) exceeds Rs15lakh, the period will be reduced to more than 120 days.

In another important amendment from the 2020-21 fiscal year, individuals who are citizens of India who are not responsible for taxation in other countries are considered to be residents of India. The conditions of the status of residence considered apply only if the gross income (except for foreign sources) exceeds Rs 15lakh and nil tax liability in another country or region for reasons of his address or residence or other criteria of a similar nature.

2. Resident not usually resident

If an individual qualifies as a resident, the next step is to determine whether he/she is a regular resident (ROR) or RNOR. He will be ROR if he meets both of the following conditions:

1. At least 2 out of 10 years ago, I was a resident of India、

2. Have stayed in India for at least 730 days in the last 7 years

Therefore, if any individual does not meet any of the above conditions, he becomes an RNOR.

From 2020-21, if a citizen or person from India leaves India for employment outside of India, they will be a regular resident if they stay in India for a total of 182 days or more. But this condition applies only if his total income (except for foreign sources) exceeds Rs15lakh.

In addition, Indian citizens who are considered to be resident in India (FY 2020-21) will reside in India and will usually reside in India.

Note: income from foreign sources means income generated or generated outside India (excluding income derived from businesses controlled in India or professions established in India).

Non-resident

Any individual who does not meet any of the conditions set forth in (a) or (b) above will be in the NR for that year.

3. Taxable

Resident: a resident is taxed in India on income earned in India and income earned outside India, i.e., his global income. NR and RNOR: tax liability in India is limited to the income they earn in India. They do not have to pay any taxes in India on their foreign income.

It should also be noted that in the case of double taxation of income, where the same income is taxed in India as well as abroad, you can rely on the Double Taxation Avoidance Agreement (DTAA).
