Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the rules for deducting Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) on professional fees under Section 194J of the Income Tax Act. It explains that the annual limit for TDS applicability is £30,000, and TDS is calculated on the total professional fees paid, not on individual transaction amounts. The advice confirms that TDS is applicable on the full £50,000 in this scenario, assuming the fees are exclusive of GST.

Is 50000/- inclusive of GST ?

If not then Tds is applicable on 50,000/-
The transaction is exclusive of GST, then if the 1st transaction on 12.12.22 and 2nd transaction happened on 23.12.22 then also need to deduct TDS on total 50000?
Limit for Tds applicability under section 194J is 30,000/- per annum. Tds is applicable on total amount. No exemption to first 30,000/- .
Professional fees paid are subject to tax.
But query is different
