This discussion clarifies whether TDS (Tax Deducted at Source) applies under Section 194C or 194J for services provided by an OEM for wind electric generator repair. The consensus is that both the supply and service components of the work order are liable for TDS under Section 194C. If the supplier objects to TDS deduction on the goods supply, TDS should be deducted solely on the service portion.

Both Supply & Service parts are liable for TDS under section 194c. In case of objection from supplier of TDS deduction on supply of goods deduct TDS only on services.
