05 May 2008 if you are received bill in april then you will pass jv on 31/03/2008 & you will pay tds before 31/05/2008 so it will allowed in the f y year 2007-08
if you want to paid in the year 2008-09 then you will pay tds before 07/05/2008

05 May 2008 TDS should be deducted on accural basis even though its a provision.

There is another altenative where -in you accumilate the TDS amount and at the year ended pay full TDS amount along with interest.

However, the first method makes more sense.

Entry:-

Vendor a/c Dr...
To TDS payable a/c.
