One of our client is producing a film for the first time, since his turnover during film production period doesn't cross tax audit limit, is it necessary to do TDS on Payments or he can take first year of audit exemption

Quick Summary
This discussion addresses whether a first-time film producer, whose turnover doesn't meet the tax audit threshold, is exempt from TDS obligations. While some suggest a one-year exemption applies to individuals and HUFs if audit wasn't applicable in the preceding financial year, others argue that TDS provisions are separate from tax audit limits. The consensus leans towards needing to comply with TDS regardless of audit applicability, especially for non-individual/HUF entities.
