For TDS on civil works related to a bungalow (construction work), here are the key points:
### Relevant Section:
* **Section 194C**: TDS on payments to contractors/sub-contractors for carrying out work (including supply of labor).
### TDS Rate:
* **1%** if the **payee is an individual or Hindu Undivided Family (HUF)** * **2%** if the **payee is any other person (e.g., company, firm, LLP, etc.)**
### Applicability:
* Deduct TDS if the payment to the contractor exceeds **₹30,000** per transaction or **₹1,00,000** in aggregate during the financial year.
### Does material supply attract TDS?
* **Material supply alone** is generally not covered under Section 194C. * If the contract includes **both labor and material**, TDS is deducted on the **whole amount** (including materials).
