Got it! Here’s a quick summary of TDS rates **as of 31st March 2009** for payments to **Non-Residents** under relevant sections, and also the rates for Residents for comparison:
---
### TDS Rates for **Non-Residents** (as per Income Tax Act around 2009):
| Section | Nature of Payment | Rate of TDS (Non-Resident) |
| -------- | ------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------ |
| **194C** | Payment to Contractors | 20% (if PAN not furnished, else 20%) |
| **194I** | Rent payment | 30% (for non-resident payees) |
| **194J** | Fees for Professional or Technical Services | 20% |
---
### TDS Rates for **Residents** (for your understanding):
| Section | Nature of Payment | Rate of TDS (Resident) |
| -------- | ------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------- |
| **194C** | Payment to Contractors | 1% (individual/HUF), 2% (others) |
| **194I** | Rent payment | 10% |
| **194J** | Fees for Professional or Technical Services | 10% |
---
### Important notes:
* For **Non-Residents**, generally a **20% or 30% rate applies**, depending on the payment type.
* If the **nature of payment is unknown**, you may need to clarify before deducting TDS.
* The **DTAA** (Double Taxation Avoidance Agreement) with the country of the non-resident payee may provide a lower TDS rate.
* If PAN is **not provided** by the payee, the rate is generally the maximum rate (20% or 30%).
