26 July 2025 TDS applicability on the **supply of fresh flowers** depends on the **nature of the contract** and the **relationship** between the supplier and the company.

---

### โœ… **Key Considerations:**

#### 1. **Is it a sale or a contract?**

* **If it is a pure sale** (i.e., you purchase fresh flowers as goods with no further service involved):

* **No TDS** is applicable.
* Supported by **CBDT Circular No. 13/2006**, which clarifies that **TDS under section 194C is not applicable** on **pure sale transactions**.

* **If itโ€™s under a contract for regular supply** (like a standing arrangement or floral decoration service):

* TDS may be applicable **under Section 194C (Contract)**.

---

### ๐Ÿงพ **Examples**:

| Scenario | TDS Applicability | Section |
| ----------------------------------------- | ----------------- | ------- |
| One-time purchase of flowers | โŒ Not Applicable | โ€“ |
| Flowers supplied regularly under contract | โœ… Applicable | 194C |
| Supply includes decoration/setup | โœ… Applicable | 194C |

---

### โœ… **TDS Rate under Section 194C**:

* **1%** โ€“ if payment is to an individual or HUF
* **2%** โ€“ if payment is to others (e.g., company, firm)
* Applicable if **single payment โ‰ฅ โ‚น30,000** or **aggregate in FY โ‰ฅ โ‚น1,00,000**

---

### ๐Ÿ“Œ Conclusion:

* **Pure purchase of flowers** = **No TDS**
* **Service/contract element involved** = **TDS under Section 194C**
