Quick Summary
Debate on whether calibration charges fall under TDS section 194C or 194J. Some treat it as contract work under 194C, while others classify it as technical/professional service under 194J depending on nature of service and skill involved.

Calibratino charges wold be covered by teh definition of work as mentieond in sectino 194C and accordingly TDS @ 1% if pymt made to individual or 2& if pymt made to company should be made.

TDS u/s 194J shud be made if there is any professional work involved which requries application of ones mind with the specified skill sets.

calibration charges will be covered under 194J. I'll more clear if you provide the full details of calibration bill.
