21 April 2026 Section 192 (Salary): Requires an employer-employee relationship (typically involves PF and PT).

Section 194J (Professional Fees): Applies to non-employee directors.

Decision: Since PF and PT are not being paid, the remuneration should be treated as professional fees. Deduct TDS under Section 194J at a flat rate of 10%.
