Hi all.... Our client is a private ltd company engaged in hotel business. They allow discount of 15% to credit card holders of a partcular bank. The customer pays the bill amount less discount. This discount allowed by them is reimbursed by the bank. The bank has deducted tds on such discount amount reimbursed @ 10.3%. Issue: 1.Whether it is justified on the part of bank to deduct TDS on such discount reimbured?

I THINK BANK IS TREATING THIS AS AN COMMISSION AND DEDUCTING TDS U/S 194H. JUSTIFICATION DEPENDS ON THE TERMS OF AGREEMENT BETWEEN BANK AND COMPANY.
