This discussion clarifies TDS and GST TDS obligations for government institutes engaging architect consultancy services for building construction. The consensus is that Section 194J applies for TDS, and the GST amount should be excluded when calculating the TDS amount. This ensures compliance with tax regulations for such professional services.

Good afternoon Madam/Sir If a govt institute is getting Consultancy Services from Architect Co. for the construction of the building, then does the institute have to deduct the TDS and GST TDS against the services of the consultancy agency? If yes, then under which section TDS will be deducted 94C or 94 J. if TDS will deduct u/s 94J then GST TDS will also be deducted or not? Thanks& Regards JAGJEET SINGH
