23 May 2014 I am engaged in supplying grocery items to army in wholesale. I have to pay carrying charges to trucks for the same. Whether TDS should be deducted from freight paid by me to the truck owners ?

23 May 2014 TDS is not deducted on frieght charges if PAN is available, however in case of non-availability of PAN, then TDS @ 20% will be deducted.

In case of Transporter - TDS is not required if valid PAN is available

otherwise deduct @20%
