PAYMENT OF OTHER SUM TO A NON DOMESTIC COMPANY UNDER SEC 195-RATE OF TAX- 41.2% IF PAYMENT SUBJECT TO TDS DOES NOT EXCEED RS. ONE CRORE .
IF IT EXCEEDS RS. ONE CRORE 42.23%
BUT THE ABOVE RATES OR RATES SPECIFIED UNDER AVOIDANCE OF DOUBLE TAXATION (ADT)AGREEMENT ENTERED BY OUR GOVT. WITH THAT COUNTRY WHICHEVER IS LOWER (UNDER SEC 90).
WITH GERMANY THERE IS SUCH ADT . RATE IS 10%
SO YOU ARE LIABLE TO DEDUCT TDS @ 10% PLUS SURCHARGE AND CESS.
