Summary: If you are an Indian business paying a foreign freelancer via Upwork, you likely have a mandatory TDS obligation under Section 195 (with no minimum threshold) and must collect documentation (TRC/Form 10F) to apply potential DTAA benefits. If you are an Indian freelancer receiving payments from abroad, you are generally not subject to Indian TDS by the client/platform and must manage your own tax filings.
