TDS section applicable on Video Editing


This query is : Resolved 

Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the applicable TDS section for payments made to a video editor. While initially questioned under 194C, the consensus points towards Section 194J. Specifically, it's debated whether the 2% rate for technical services or the 10% rate for professional services applies. The prevailing view is that video editors fall under notified professionals, thus attracting a 10% TDS rate under 194J.

16 May 2025 My client contracted with a video editor for his channel, he is paying Rs 1 lakh per month to the editor is TDS deductible u/s 194C or 194J? (If under 194J at what rate?)

16 May 2025 please use 194J for this.

19 May 2025 Sir 194J technical services (2%) or professional services(10%)?

07 June 2025 194J technical services (2%)

07 June 2025 Nabin - Video editors will get covered under 44AA(1) notified professionals.. Hence 10% TDS should apply instead of 2
