dear djtauraus tds is also deducted on saleable goods , for hotel it is sale but for us it is not purchase it is our expense and above 20000/- itds should be deducted if i am wrong plz correct me

Dear Deepak,

The transaction is in the nature of contract and tax has to be deducted u/s 194 of IT Act. @ 2%

Single bill @ Rs.20000 or more & for the year it is @ Rs.50000 & above then only TDS comes in a picture.

Regards
