08 May 2023 For construction work, the contractor who is an individual is supplying labour and billing the charges paid by him as per actual attendance of the labour. On the total amount of labour wages, he charges his profit as commission @ 10% of total wage bill for a particular period. Please advise me as to TDS will be applicable on entire billed amount u/s 194C only or TDS will be u/s 194H on contractor's margin (Commission). Thanks

08 May 2023 You are paying total amount (& not reimbursement of individual labor payments) to the contractor, sec. 194C will apply.
