Abstract
Rental income is simply any income that is derived from letting out a property such as a house. If one owns a house and decides to let it out, any income realised thereof is what is referred to as rental income. There are serious penalties under the provisions of the income tax act for failing to comply with withholding tax provisions. Under the Income Tax Act, any person found guilty of such an offence may be liable to a fine not exceeding one million kwacha or imprisonment for a term not exceeding 12 months or to both.
