Employee Provident Fund
A Company made EPF payment to a retiring employee through Trust. The Assessee retired on Jul'21 and received the EPF payment on May'22. For the interim period the trust has paid interest on the accumulated balance. While making the payment the Trust deducted TDS on entire interest, i.e. int for the period Aug'21 to May '22 on accumulated balance. Is it right to deduct TDS on the entire interest. Shouldn't they segregate taxable and non taxable contributions and deduct TDS on interest from accumulated balance of taxable contributions.
