You can deduct TDS U/s 194C. . An engineer can be said to be rendering technical services if he could modify the systems by exercising his wisdom. He can't make such alterations in the company models,( and from the day when he starts so he will be called by HP itself and pay him after TDS U/s 194J). He has just to follow the technical manuals and maintain the machines. 194C is the appropriate Section for TDS. .
