Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies that Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) under Section 194C is generally not applicable if only materials are supplied, without any labour or service being rendered. TDS under this section is specifically for services that generate income, distinct from salaries. The aim of TDS is to simplify tax collection and reduce costs for both taxpayers and the economy.

No, TDS will not be deducted in this case as 194c specifically impose deduction in case of services being provided.
TAX DEDUCTED AT SOURCE WAS INTRODUCED TO PLUG LOOPHOLES IN THE TAX SYSTEM.
AS A RESULT OF THE FACT ,ANY SERVICE WHICH IS RENDERED AND IS FOUND TO BE A SOURCE OF INCOME OTHER THAN SALARY .
Tax ADMINISTRATION SHOULD REDUCE EXPLICIT COST OF COLLECTION AS WELL AS INDIRECT COST BORNE BY TAXPAYERS AND BY THE ECONOMY.

MATERIAL WAS EARLIER CONNECTED WITH VAT AND NOW GST WITH A BROADER PERSPECTIVE.
