Tax Column
I am holding shares of a private limited company with an investment value of ₹1 crore. The company is now under liquidation. It has ₹4 crore in the bank account which is accumulated over a period of years out of the profit of the company. I was told by the liquidator that on distribution, they will deduct 10 per cent withholding tax. Can you clarify whether the action of the liquidator is correct and what would be the tax implication in my hand?
