20 March 2009 In a recent case, the apex court has held that Section 194C is not applicable to payment made to Hotels.

However, applicability of Section 194I can not be ruled out.

20 March 2009 Section 194I will be applicable for Room rent if the amount exceeds Rs. 120,000 in a year.

For payment made against foods etc. Section 194C will be applicable.
