Here's a clear breakdown of your queries:
---
### 1. **TDS on Sound System Payment**
* **If the payment is for renting the sound system (hiring charges), TDS is applicable under Section 194-I (Rent).** * **Threshold:** No TDS if annual payment to the same party is less than Rs. 1.8 lakhs. * **If payment is for purchase of sound system (not rent), TDS under 194C (Contract) may apply if it qualifies as a work contract or supply contract.**
---
### 2. **CENVAT Credit and Entries on Advertisement Advance**
* **Yes, CENVAT credit is available only on tax invoices issued by the service provider.**
* Your suggested entries:
**On payment of 100% advance including Service Tax:**
``` Adv. Agency A/c Dr. (Including ST) To TDS Payable A/c (2% under 194C) To Bank A/c ```
**When Tax Invoice is received:**
``` Adv. Expense A/c Dr. (Excluding ST) Service Tax A/c Dr. To Adv. Agency A/c ```
* These are **correct in principle**, but make sure to separate service tax from advance payment for proper credit.

### 3. **TDS on Printing Press Charges with VAT**
* **TDS is applicable on printing charges under Section 194C (Contract).** * **VAT is a pass-through tax and no TDS is deducted on VAT.** * TDS should be deducted **only on the net amount excluding VAT**.
