If the same individual provides both a building for rent (Rs. 15,000/month) and a machine for rent (Rs. 8,000/month) to the same lessee, TDS (Tax Deducted at Source) liability will arise. This is because the annual rent for the building alone exceeds the Rs. 2,40,000 threshold for Section 194I. The TDS rate will be 10% on the building rent and 2% on the machinery rent.
