Penalty for failure to pay tax in respect of Winning from Lottery or Crossword Puzzle

The section 194B provides that the person responsible for paying to any person any income by way of winnings from any lottery or crossword puzzle or card game and other game of any sort in an amount exceeding Rs.10,000 [ten thousand rupees], shall, at the time of payment thereof, deduct income-tax thereon at the rates in force.

Second proviso to section 194B provides that in a case where the winnings are wholly in kind or partly in cash and partly in kind but the part in cash is not sufficient to meet the liability of deduction of tax in respect of whole of the winnings, the person responsible for paying shall, before releasing the winnings, ensure that tax has been paid in respect of the winnings.

If any person fails to pay whole or part of the tax as required under second proviso to section 194B than, such person shall be liable to pay penalty of an amount equal to tax not paid as per section 271C.
