if the payment is purely in the nature of reimbursement or advance against which expenses actually incurred will be set off, then no TDS.  However, is there is no nexus between the actual expense and the payments made, then TDS shall be applicable.

For eg, if you state in your agreement that actual expenses incurred shall be reimbursed, then no TDS.  However if the agreement says, $ 100 per day, then TDS is applicable.
