An Indian Company exports the machines to some overseas company through agent.

The agent takes care of installation of the machines there at buyer's company. The agent charges some amount from Indian Company as installation charges.

Now, when paying the installation charges to this agent, do Indian Company need to deduct the tax (TDS) on the installation/ service charges. If so, how much % of TDS will be dedcuted?

I think you may have to deduct tax at 10% under technical services - 194J

94C or 94J both can be applicabke in this case, but since installation requires technical skills therefore deduction u/s 94J @ 10% will be more appropriate.

What if we show that this amount is being paid as commission, not installation charges, then do we need to dedcut the tax/tds or not?

I think TDS u/s 194H might be applicable only on the part of amount paid as commission to the agent , and no TDS on technical services will be deducted as services are provided to the overseas company buying the machine and not to the company exporting , the agent is merely recovering the amount spend upon installation.

Outsourcing WordPress development works best when your business needs specialized expertise, faster project delivery, or extra support without the cost of expanding an in-house team. A reliable outsourcing partner can handle custom development, maintenance, and technical challenges while allowing your internal team to focus on core business priorities. Success usually depends on clear communication, defined goals, and choosing a team with proven WordPress experience.
