07 January 2012 The vendor can sale goods at a lower rate so as to benefit the customer/dealer with the quantum of incentive.

Kerala High Court's case in Vodafone Essar Cellular Ltd.:
Discount retained by distributors of prepaid Sim Cards, recharge coupen etc is liable to TDS U/s 194H as commission.
