Kindly confirm whether TDS will be deducted on clerk cherges u/s 194J if the clerk charges is included in the legal bill of the advisor.

I think TDS u/s 194J will not be attracted on Clerk chrges provided Clerk produce the separtate bill & their total amount does not exceed Rs 30000/-

Kindly confirm am I right or wrong ??
