08 November 2012 In the above transaction 194I doesnt apply as, 194I is applicable to rental Income ., and generally rental income is with leasing of immovable property.,

For the purposes of this section, - (i) "Rent" means any payment, by whatever name called, under any lease, sub-lease, tenancy or any other agreement or arrangement for the use of any land or any building (including factory building), together with furniture, fittings and the land appurtenant thereto, whether or not such building is owned by the payee;

therefor the tax is to be deducted U/s. 194c only

08 November 2012 In my view Section 194I is applicable since it provides for TDS on rent of plant and machineries also and under section 32 car pertains in Plant and Machinery Block.Hence in my view the car owner is right in not to deduct tax since hire charges does not exceeds Rs.180000
