Hi..
We need to pay to a Chinese company a fixed amount system set-up fees, so that they can set-up our account in their system and help us process the payments to be collected for our service exports.
They have no branches in India, or have any tie up. Do we have to deduct a TDS on the fees? If so, at what rate, and who do we issue the TDS certificate to ?
Thanks in anticipation for any advice...

Yes Mr vivek is right.
Dear Vivek,
Thanks for this clarification and the attachment is indeed helpful.
Please help me understand one another thing - our business is considering appointing a franchisee in Hongkong - who will reimbursed on the costs incurred on our behalf and a markup. He would submit a mothly invoice, and we would have to remit that money to him. Would this payment also attract a TDS? That expense is my cost, so I would end up paying a tax on my cost, and then again on my profits again ? Or, is there a way to set off such TDS against my income taxes?
As always, a thanks in anticipation for any advice,
Best regards,
Mr. Goutham
