TDS on Hotel Booking Agent

TDS 15602 views 6 replies

Hi all,

We have a client who is in the business of Event Management. it is a pvt. Ltd. company. during the year the company has paid Rs. 5.8 lacs to an tours and travels agent who is in the business of travel bookings as well as hotel bookings. the payment was made against the bills for hotel bookings. 

Kindly let me know on what rate tds to be deducted on the above agent. whether it is treated u/s 194 C or 194 J?

 HI Elroy

payment is made against the bills for hotel bookings so no tds would be attracted.

But yes if the payment is made for a providing an agent service then tds should be deducted u/s 194C @ 1% in case of Individual and HUF

@ 2% in case of others

Payments made by persons other than individuals and HUF for hotel accommodation taken on regular basis will be in the nature of rent subject to TDS under section 194-I. [Emphasis supplied]

 

CBDT later on issued a circular no No. 5/2002, dated 30-7-2002 for clearing the doubts as to what constitutes hotel accommodation taken on regular basis for the purpose

Hi,

I would like to know at what percentage the comapny can deduct Tds for Hotel Booking done at different city in India  through travel agent, and the TDS u/s 194c or 194 J  

Hotel booking done is subject to TDS u/s 194I if "hotel accomodation is taken on regular basis" as clarified  by the CBDT later on by issuing a circular no No. 5/2002, dated 30-7-2002.

However if hotel booking is done through an agent then TDS would be attracted u/s 194C @ 1% for Individuals and HUF AND 2% for others.

 

Hello,

If any person is providng flight/bus/train booking service and for that he is charging service charges, will that servic charge be liable to TDS u/s 194C or 194H??

Sir

Kinldy clarify. please respond on urgent basis.
