Regarding **TDS on Dealer Subvention Charges paid to Bajaj Finance**:
1. **Accounting Procedure:**
* When the dealer receives a subvention invoice from Bajaj Finance, it should be recorded as **"Subvention Income" or "Commission Income"** in the books.
* The amount can be credited to the income account (e.g., Commission Received or Dealer Subvention Income).
* If TDS is deducted by the dealer on this income, then it will be recorded as TDS Receivable (or Advance Tax).
2. **Applicability of TDS under Section 194H:**
* Subvention charges paid to Bajaj Finance can be treated as **commission**.
* Therefore, TDS under **Section 194H @ 5%** is applicable on the payment made by the dealer to Bajaj Finance Limited.
* However, TDS deduction is **not applicable** if the dealer is an individual or HUF who is **not liable for audit** under Income Tax Act in the previous financial year.
3. **On Case Law / Definition:**
* There is no direct, widely-cited case law specifically defining "subvention" as commission or contract.
* Generally, **subvention is considered as an incentive or commission-like payment** given by the financier to the dealer for facilitating finance or sales.
* In absence of explicit rulings, the nature of subvention is interpreted based on the terms of the agreement and the nature of services rendered.
