I Think just an agreement between the director & company is enough but TDS liabilities arise if Rent paid is more than 120000 in a year For F.Y. 2009-10 and 180000 for F.Y.2010-11. and it also covered under service tax.

Simply prepare a rent agreement and get it approved from BOD through a board resolution. Take care of section 299 and 301. Entry in 301 register is necessary.

Extra care is needs to be taken for this kind of transaction in a public company due to section 295-Loan to director. A real rent agreement supported by BM resolution is necessary to be maintained in records of the company to deal with the situation where question raised by ROC u/s 295 during investigation of the company affairs.

If the rent agreement is not prepared and lessor - lesse relationship is not created then Deedmed Dividend concept will also attract for the Director

Dear Ritu Ji,
There is no problem, just prepare a rent agreement, make entry in the register u/s 301 and pay rent to the directror. And ofcourse the Rent is subject to TDS as described by Mr. Harish.
