Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies whether TDS on payments to a corporate diagnostics centre for testing charges falls under Section 194C (contract) or 194J (professional medical services). The consensus points towards Section 194J, as the services rendered are considered professional medical services, not a general contract for work.

Hi,

Is there any contract for service rendered and what's the nature of service 

Kindly elaborate about nature of service.

check question elaborated

194J will be applicable
In my opinion 194J should apply.
194 J TDS on professional services, technical services

Here professional services means
44AA. [1] Every person carrying on legal, medical, engineering or architectural profession or the profession of accountancy or technical consultancy or interior decoration or any other profession

in the case, fees for medical services
Accordingly 194j apply

194 c TDS on contract for service - apply to all types of contracts for carrying out any work including, transport contracts, service contracts, advertisement contracts, broadcast­ing contracts, telecasting contracts, labour contracts, material contracts and works contracts.

TDS should be deducted u/s Sec 194J as it is a part of medical professional service.

Not section 194C
IT SHOULD BE 194J A PROFESSIONAL SERVICE.
Sec.194J this is a professional services
