TCS ON SALE OF GOODS — SECTION 206C(1H) RECONCILIATION WORKING PAPER

Seller: ___ · PAN: ___ · Previous year ended: ___ · Assessment Year: ___

Applicability: Section 206C(1H) applies to a seller whose total sales, gross receipts or turnover from business exceeded ₹10 crore in the immediately preceding financial year, on receipt of consideration for sale of goods from a buyer exceeding ₹50 lakh in the current year (verify these thresholds are still current before relying on them), subject to specified exclusions (e.g. goods already covered by TCS under other sub-sections, exports, and goods on which the buyer is liable to deduct TDS under any provision and has done so).

Any positive difference should be investigated for a deposit timing gap (verify against the challan/TCS return) versus a genuine shortfall requiring correction and payment of interest under Section 206C(7).

Common questions

FAQs.

Who is liable to collect TCS under Section 206C(1H)?
A seller whose total sales, gross receipts or turnover from business exceeded the prescribed threshold (commonly cited as ₹10 crore) in the immediately preceding financial year must collect TCS on receipt of consideration for sale of goods from a buyer, once that buyer's aggregate payments during the year exceed the prescribed threshold (commonly cited as ₹50 lakh) — verify both thresholds are still current before relying on them for a specific year.
Does Section 206C(1H) apply if the buyer already deducts TDS on the purchase?
No — where the buyer is required to deduct tax at source under any other provision of the Act on the goods purchased, and has actually deducted it, the seller is not required to collect TCS under Section 206C(1H) on that same transaction, avoiding a double compliance burden.
What is the TCS collection point — invoice or receipt of payment?
TCS under Section 206C(1H) is collected at the time of receipt of consideration (i.e. on a receipt basis, not on raising the invoice) — this timing distinction matters for reconciling collection dates against the sales ledger and for computing any interest on delayed collection/deposit.
