11 September 2017 Hi All,

My client is a franchisee and pays a fixed percentage on turnover each month to the franchisor which he considers as royalty paid, and another single payment of a lumpsum amount is made to the franchisor which he booked it as Franchise fee, I am clear that royalty paid is subject to TDS u/s 194J, but I am not sure whether franchise fee is subject to TDS pleae help

Thank you
Regards
Aishwarya
