Starting on April 1, 2023, any "Net Winnings" that players get from playing online games on Force11 will be subject to a 30% withholding tax (referred to as "TDS") under the new section 194BA of the Income-tax Act, 1961.
TDS will be activated:
At the time of withdrawal throughout the year, or
At the end of the Financial Year, i.e., March 31
Net Winnings = A - B - C - D, where,
A = Aggregate withdrawals from the user account
B = Aggregate amount deposited in the user
account during that period
C = Balance in the user account at the beginning of the financial
year
D = Winnings included from earlier withdrawals on which TDS has already been deducted
Understand the new amendment with some easy examples:
A user has a winning wallet balance of ₹2,000 at the beginning of the fiscal year but has yet to make any deposits into the Force11 wallet. By using the Available Balance, the user has participated in fantasy tournaments and earned a total of ₹10,000. The user then requests a ₹4,000 withdrawal, and the account details are as follows:
In other words, the user has requested a 4,000 withdrawal from their winnings. When the deposit amount and account balance are considered, the net winnings total ₹2,000. Force11 will deduct 30% of the Net Winnings as TDS, or 600 in this case. The total amount credited to the user's chosen bank account would be 3,400.
Suppose the same user has added ₹2,000 to his in-app wallet. The user then wants a further 5,000 withdrawals. In this instance:
Total withdrawal amount requested, A = ₹4,000 (earlier withdrawal amount) + ₹5,000 (new withdrawal
amount)
Total amount deposited by the user, B = ₹2,000
Opening balance of the
financial year, C = ₹2,000
Withdrawals on which TDS has been deducted, D = ₹2,000
Then, Net Winnings = A - B - C - D
Net Winnings = (₹4,000 + ₹5,000) - ₹2,000
- ₹2,000 - ₹2,000
Net Winnings = ₹9,000 - ₹6,000
Net Winnings = ₹3,000
TDS on this withdrawal will be calculated in the following manner,
TDS = 30% of Net Winnings
TDS = 0.30 * Net Winnings
TDS = 0.30 * 3,000
TDS = ₹900
Amount credited to Bank Account = Requested Withdrawal Amount - TDS
Amount credited to Bank
Account = ₹5,000 - ₹900
Amount credited to Bank Account = ₹4,100
The consumer has taken out 9,000 from their winnings for the year in two withdrawals. After accounting for account balances, deposits, and past withdrawals, the user's Net Winnings total 3,000. Following the deduction of TDS, 4,100 will be credited to the user's registered bank account.
For TDS at the year end:
Imagine the user from the abovementioned scenarios ends the financial year with a deposit of 5,000 and a winning balance of 10,000. (i.e., March 31). Force11 will automatically take a 30% TDS in the manner outlined below because there has not been a TDS deduction made on these prizes: (and will show up in the Force11 wallet)
Total withdrawal amount, A = ₹9,000
Total amount deposited by the user, B = ₹2,000 + ₹5,000 =
₹7,000
Opening balance of the winning wallet at the beginning of the financial year, C =
₹2,000
Winnings from earlier withdrawals on which TDS has been deducted, D = ₹2,000 + ₹3,000
= ₹5,000
Closing Balance in the winning wallet at the end of the financial year, E = ₹10,000
Then, Net Winnings = E + A - B - C - D
Net Winnings = (₹10,000 + ₹9,000) - ₹7,000 - ₹2,000 -
₹5,000
Net Winnings = ₹19,000 - ₹14,000
Net Winnings = ₹5,000
TDS on this withdrawal will be calculated in the following manner,
TDS = 30% of Net Winnings
TDS = 0.30 * Net Winnings
TDS = 0.30 * 5,000
TDS = ₹1,500
New Wallet Balance = Winnings on which no TDS has been deducted - TDS
New Wallet Balance =
₹10,000 - ₹1,500
New Wallet Balance = ₹8,500
NOTE:This new value in your wallet represents the year's final Balance, which will automatically change to the first Balance of the upcoming fiscal year.
The Net Winnings and TDS deduction would be calculated as follows if a user had an initial balance of 3,000 and had won ₹15,000 over the year in skill-based tournaments, put 5,000 into their wallet but had not yet withdrawn any money:
Net Winnings = E + A - B - C - D, where,
Total withdrawal amount, A = ₹0, as user hasn’t made
any withdrawal request
Total amount deposited by the user, B = ₹5,000
Opening
balance of the winning wallet at the beginning of the financial year, C = ₹3,000
Winnings
from earlier withdrawals on which TDS has already been deducted, D = ₹0, as no withdrawal has been
made
Closing Balance in the winnings wallet at the end of the financial year, E = ₹15,000
Net Winnings = E + A - B - C - D
Net Winnings = ₹15,000 + 0 - ₹5,000 - ₹3,000 - 0
Net
Winnings = ₹15,000 - ₹8,000
Net Winnings = ₹7,000
TDS = 30% of Net Winnings
TDS = 0.30 * Net Winnings
TDS = 0.30 * 7,000
TDS =
₹2,100
New Wallet Balance = Balance in the user account at the end of the financial year - TDS
New
Wallet Balance = ₹15,000 - ₹2,100
New Wallet Balance = ₹12,900
Cash Bonuses are an incentive for users during promotions. Hence they are exempt from the TDS deduction.
The amount credited to the user's registered bank account or Force11 Wallet (in the event of a change in the financial year) will be the amount left over after the TDS deduction, following the new tax law.
Any such tax deductions will result in TDS certificates being given to the winners.
We require payments through NEFT/RTGS/IMPS or other E Modes following section 269SU of the Income Tax Act.
