My query is regarding tax deduction at source on freight charges- 1) As per section 172 IT Act , 1969- TDS is exempt which carries passengers, livestock, mail or goods shipped at a port in India, So my question is that whether TDS is applicable or not for freight charges of Goods transported from India to any other countries.
2) Whether TDS is applicable on Freight charges of goods from and to India by Air.
