Whatever are the doubts, we are going to clarify the practical difficulties before July 1,&#8221; Varshney said while interacting with the members of industry chamber Assocham.<\/p>\n<p>He said benefits like free medicine samples received by doctors, or free IPL tickets, foreign flight ticket received in the course of business or profession are income and should be disclosed in the income tax return.<\/p>\n<p>Giving example, Varshney said if a doctor is receiving free samples it should be shown as benefit or perquisites and is income, irrespective of whether the pharma company is using it as sales promotion.<\/p>\n<p>He said the company can claim deduction for such sales promotion expenditure, but that promotion would be a taxable income in the hands of the person receiving it. &#8220;Therefore you have to deduct TDS&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Stressing that 194R is applicable to free samples received by doctors, Varshney said taxablility of such benefits cannot be based on the fact that since free samples are not being sold, it is not income. &#8220;Free samples have a value,&#8221; he said.
