This discussion clarifies the application of TDS under Section 194C for contractor payments. If the total payments in a month don't exceed ₹30,000 (or ₹1,00,000 in aggregate during the financial year), TDS is not required. However, if a subsequent bill pushes the total over these limits, TDS must be deducted on the entire amount. The rates depend on whether the payee is an individual/HUF (1%) or another entity (2%), with a higher rate of 20% if PAN is not provided.

Deduct tax on whole amount of Rs. 165000. If deductee is company @ 1.75% and if deductee is individual @ .75% till March'21 otherwise TDS rate are 2% and 1% respectively.

Sorry read 1.50% in place of 1.75%.
