Dividend Distribution tax on deemed dividend :
Dividend distributed by a domestic company is subject to dividend distribution tax payable by such company. However, deemed dividend under section of 2(22)(e) is taxed in the hands of the recipient and no dividend distribution tax is currently being levied.
Proposed amendment: It is proposed to tax deemed dividend referred under section 2(22)(e) in the hands of company. Dividend distribution tax @30% without grossing up is proposed to be levied on the company.
