11 September 2012 Thanks for reply.
The word "managerial" is included in the definition of "technical services".

can it termed as managerial service and consequently section 194J be applied.

13 September 2012 Under the agreement you are using the vendor's premises for storing your records. In effect you have taken the premises on rent and are using ot for storage.

The underlying contract is renting of immovable property. The use of the property is not material. You may use the property for any purpose, storing or other.

The fact remains that you are enjoying teh right as a tenant.

Accordingly, such payment shall be termed as rent and TDS will be deducted u/s 194I.
