Under section.195 all the payers are covered irrespective of their status like Individual, HUF, and Firm & Corporate etc. So all the payers are responsible to deduct TDS under this section if they are making payment to non resident as per prescribed conditions

Under this section all the payees are covered whether Individual or Corporate or any other status ( only if your foregn company is a non resident under section 6 of Income Tax Act)

TDS has to be deducted at the time of credit or payment whichever is earlier 

Relevant rate in force as per chapter XVIIB.  Incase payee not having valid PAN, then TDS rate  as per rate prescribed chapter XVIIB or 20% whichever is higher will apply.
