The table below outlines commission models, qualification milestones, statutory tax treatment, and tracking methods:

Ensuring corporate statutory compliance when disbursing referral fees:

• Section 194-H TDS Deduction (2%): When annual referral commission paid to an individual partner exceeds ₹20,000 in a financial year, the venue deducts 2% TDS on the commission value.
• Form 16A (Form 131 from tax year 2026-27) TDS Certificates: Venura auto-generates quarterly Form 16A certificates mapped directly to partner PAN records.
• Zero Unrecorded Cash: Never pay unrecorded cash referral commissions to avoid Section 271AAB audit penalties.

Venura streamlines partner program management:

• Partner Attribution Tracking: Tag arriving inquiries with the referring partner's name and contact in the CRM.
