29 September 2009 It would come under sec. 194C of the IT Act liable to TDS.

There is no requirement of existence of a written contract. Agreement / contract can be oral. It is evidenced by conduct of the parties.

29 September 2009 This is merely a purchase and sale transaction. hence do not confuse with tds. If the vendor charges separately for labour(separate bill for labour charges only), it will come under 194C.

30 September 2009 Dear Manoj,

As per SEC 194C TDS APPLICABLE ONLY FOR LABOUR CHARGES AND IT SHOW SAPARATE LINE ITEM IN THE ORGINAL INVOICE.

BUT IN YOUR CASE TDS NOT APPLICABLE

30 September 2009 With due respect to the experts, I beg to differ.

The queried situation is not a merely transaction for purchase of stationery.

It is a composite contract for printing of stationery involving supply of materials.

This issue has already been examined vide circular no 715 dtd. 08-08-1995. The board is of the view that, TDS is attracted on supply of printed materials.

It would be of benefit to refer to the following as well.
