Applying the provisions of Section 92CE and Rule 10CB, Where the excess money is not repatriated within the time limit of 90 days, interest shall be charged on the excess money or part thereof. The interest shall be computed at one year marginal cost of fund lending of SBI of relevant previous year (2021-22 in the given case) + 325 basis points. Also, in case of payment of additional tax, secondary adjustment is not required to be made and interest need not be computed from the date of payment of tax, which means interest has to be computed till the date of payment of tax (1.12.2021 in the given case) Interest computation will be done from the date of the order of the AO - 1.6.2021 In the given case, the rate at which interest has to be computed is 11.75% (8.5%+3.25%). In simple terms, interest on 1 crore on which additional tax is not paid shall be computed at the rate of 11.75% for the period of 1.6.2021 to 31.3.2021 and the interest on 1 crore on which additional tax has been paid shall be computed at the rate of 11.75% for the period of 1.6.2021 to 1.12.2021. The calculation comes to approximately Rs. 15.6 lakhs.
