Dear Friends My colleague received a mail from JSTOR which is reproduced here.Kindly go through it and give a clarification/explain what this "indian tax board".Let me know whether 15% of payment has to without while making payment for subscribing e-resources? mail from JSTOR representative is here... "Thank you for remitting payment for renewal access to JSTOR journal content. We greatly appreciate your continued support and are delighted that you will continue to provide access to high quality content to your students, faculty, and researchers through the JSTOR platform. I am contacting you because we noticed that you have a credit on your account in the amount of $140.30 USD. You can use this credit toward new content such as additional journal packages, e-books or current issues. We would also like to learn more about how this credit may have occurred. We assume that institutions in India must withhold 15% their payments for electronic resources to be remitted to the Indian Tax Board. It appears your institution did not withhold this amount. Is your institution tax exempt or is there some other reason the amount was not withheld? I look forward to your feedback so that we might better serve you and other institutions in India. Also let me know if I can provide you with more information on additional content that may be of interest to you" Jasimudeen s Kerala www.jasim.in -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
