This discussion clarifies whether the GST amount should be included when calculating the ₹50 lakh purchase limit under Section 194Q. The consensus is that GST is not included in the threshold calculation, as the section refers to the 'value' of the goods. TDS should therefore be deducted on the amount excluding GST.

No need to consider GST amount to check the threshold,becuse the wording of clause(1) is "........ for purchase of any goods of the value........".
