28 December 2015 Hi

As per Sec 194I, TDS is to be deducted @10% on payment of rent if payment exceeds Rs. 1,80,000 p.a. Individuals and /or HUFs who are subject to tax audit are also under this obligation to deduct TDS. So, in case of sole proprietorship, if any individual ( say, Mr.A owner of sole prop business) pays rent of say Rs.2,00,000/- to the landlord of premises where Mr. A conducts business, he will deduct TDS @10%p.a., that is, Rs.. 20,000. Lets say Mr. A also pays a rent of his personal house of Rs. 3,00,000/- p.a. In this case, will Mr. A be required to deduct TDS even of the amount of rent (i.e. Rs. 3,00,000/-) he pays for personal house?

Any help would be appreciated.
