Trip Wise Toll Charge Deductions (FASTag) – We have mapped Toll Charge based on the transaction date against the Trip period. We have

for FasTag Toll Charges. Details are given in the annexure below:

1.2.4 Trip route Expenditures- Toll Gates (FASTag) HIGH MED LOW
Key Observations
Based on the online statement generated from ICICI’s FasTag website we have verified the following:
• Double Deduction of Toll - Toll Deductions within 2.5 hours for same vehicle at same toll plaza are considered as Double Deduction
• Excess Deductions for Return Journey within 24 Hours – For vehicles returning within 24 hours instead of Return Journey Rate the
Single journey rate has been deducted, resulting in excess deduction.
• Other Excess Deductions – Wrong Rate of Deductions
• Receipt of Cash Back – cash back is received on eligible transactions through ‘FASTag’. We have verified the cash back to be received for
the period of January 2018 to April 2018.
These excess deductions are being submitted to ICICI for refund. A summary of excess deductions and the details of Cash back are given in the
succeeding slides.

7.5 Remittance of TDS HIGH MED LOW
Key Observations
• During the Period from 1st Jan 2018 to 31st Mar 2018 charges are paid to RCL for unloading of Return Load at the factory amounting to `
8,36,137/-. Tax has not been deducted on the same amounting to ` 14,172/- and Interest for Non-deduction of TDS amounting to ` 1,084/-
Also, GST is being charged by RCL, the input of which is not claimed.
• An amount of ` 3,02,279/- from January’18 to March’18 is paid to RCL towards Corpus Fund. It is explained that the same is collected by RCL
based on the Tonnage carried by transporters towards development of roads. The same is considered as an expenditure by ALPL. Prima facie,
it appears to be in the nature of voluntary contribution not arising out of contractual agreements. The deduction of the same as an
expenditure under Income Tax Act needs to be reviewed. Further, applicability of provisions of TDS also needs to be reviewed. In the event a
view is taken that TDS is required to be done, non deduction of the same will negate the claim of expenditure to the extent of 30%. Details of
the amount paid are given below.
