26 September 2013 For doing TDS on works contract bills specific rates are not given. TDS is to be made as per the tax liability of the contractor.In the normal cases 4% TDS is made as it is the rate of tax payable under composition scheme.If a ontractor feels that it is too high and prooves that his actual liability falls at a lower rate,e.g. due to major part of work being entrusted to subcontractors etc,he can get the TDS rate reduced to appropriate level.See sec9A of KVAT Act for details.....mjk
