This query is : Resolved

Quick Summary

This discussion clarifies the TDS deduction requirements under Section 194C of the Income Tax Act. It explains that TDS must be deducted if a single contract payment exceeds £30,000 or if the aggregate payments for a contract throughout the financial year exceed £100,000. Importantly, if GST is shown separately on an invoice, it is not included when calculating the taxable amount for TDS purposes.

31 August 2024 if I pay to DHL 1,20,000/- including GST of 35,000/- should I deduct TDS though taxable amount didn't exceed the 1lakh limit?

31 August 2024 You need to deduct TDS (u/s. 194C IT act) as the Single payment limit of Rs. 30K has exceeded.
