13 October 2010 no need to deduct tds

13 October 2010 Can you please explain why TDS is not deducted ? or if any notification is there then please provide me that notification

17 October 2010 payment for Hotel rooms on regualr basis will attract TDS 194I subject to thershold limit of Rs.1.80 lakh, so in your query amount is exceeding Rs.1.80 lakh, tds need to be deduct

19 October 2010 A good discussion,. Just want to add one more point that, in the circular 5/2002 one important argument is hidden

“Where earmarked rooms are let out for a specified rate and specified period”, they would be construed to be accommodation made available on ‘regular basis’. Similar would be the case, where a room or set of rooms are not earmarked, but the hotel has a legal obligation to provide such types of rooms during the currency of the agreement

Thus where there is no agreement in place with hotel even if the same room is hired for a longer period, there is no TDS required to be deducted, secondly if the agreement is in place, but no obligation of the hotel to provide the room, the same room is booked even on daily basis, No TDS is required to be deducted. Thus where the , the element of “obligation” and “earmarked” is missing, no need for TDS to be deducted.

Where an agreement is merely in the nature of a rate contract, it cannot be said to be accommodation ‘taken on regular basis’, as there is no obligation on the part of the hotel to provide a room or specified set of rooms. The occupancy in such cases would be occasional or casual. In other words, a rate-contract is different for this reason from other agreements, where rooms are taken on regular basis. Consequently, the provisions of section 194-I while applying to hotel accommodation taken on regular basis would not apply to rate contract agreements
