Query regarding 194c

Dear All,

 

Kindly guide me whether TDS u/s 194 C should be deducted in the following cases.

 

1. Refreshments are provided by students mess for programmes run in the institution.  The students of the institution runs the mess. Whether TDS has to be deducted on such payment?. The students doesn't have PAN number. 

2. Refreshments are provided by the mess of the institution. The mess in-charge is the college faculty and they are not separately paid for the mess service provided. Its a part of their duty to take care of the mess.

 

Kindly guide me in above issues. I am getting different answers from many. Please clear me.

 

Advance thanks to all

There is no need to deduct tax on amount paid for the refreshment by the college to mess, because there must be a contractual relationship between college and mess to attract  the provision of sec 194c.Since mess is itself run by the college there is no question arise of deducting tds.
