Thaking you,



06 July 2012 If you are having transport contract no need of deducting tds just obtain PAN from the transporter

06 July 2012 first you paid amount to party not to transporter. so you don't need to deduct TDS. Moreover you have Transporter PAN also for safe side. As this freight for material inward then after getting PAN you don't need to deduct TDS. sec 194 C

07 July 2012 Payment to transporter :- NO TDS
PROVIDED PAN NO IS GIVEN
OTHERWISE DEDUCT TDS 20%

07 July 2012 since you are not paying the Transportation charges directly to the transporter you are not liable to deduct TDS as you paying the amount to the party from whom you are purchasing
therefore the party is liable to deduct TDS
and if the Transporter gives PAN to party then no TDS is required
but if you are paying the Transport and the case is not of Re-imbursement then you are liable and you have to obtain PAN

07 July 2012 Dear Dinesh,

In your case deduction of TDS is not applicable as it is a case purchase which has only be accounted wrongly through Transportation Charges.

However, In case transportation charges are paid to a goods transport agency, TDS is required to be deducted at a higher rate of 20%, only in case transporter doesn't furnishes his PAN No. to the deductee. Otherwise, TDS is not required to be deducted on the same.

15 May 2013 TDS is not required to deduct on transportation charges provided transporter provided his valid pan card.

please not that there is a mandatory obligation that these details to be provided in tds returns..

you can get clear cut idea if you read my article in this regard..
