TDS Applicability The applicability of Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) on purchases made by a government department depends on the nature of the transaction.

Here's a breakdown:

Purchases Subject to TDS - *Fuel for Government Vehicles*: TDS might be applicable if the purchase is from a dealer or supplier who is not exempt from TDS. -

*Fertilizers, Pesticides, and Seeds*: TDS might not be applicable if these purchases are from manufacturers or suppliers who are exempt from TDS under specific sections of the Income-tax Act, 1961.

Purchases Not Subject to TDS - *Fuel for Agriculture Use*: If the fuel is purchased for agricultural purposes, it might be exempt from TDS, depending on the supplier's status and the specific provisions of the Income-tax Act. -

*LPG Gas Cylinders*: TDS might not be applicable if the purchase is from a public sector undertaking or a company exempt from TDS. Key

Considerations - *Section 194Q*: TDS is applicable on purchases of goods exceeding ₹50 lakh in a financial year from a resident seller. -

*Exemptions*: Certain government departments or purchases might be exempt from TDS under specific sections of the Income-tax Act. -

*PAN and Threshold*: TDS applicability also depends on the PAN of the supplier and the threshold limits specified in the Income-tax Act [1].

Conclusion To determine the TDS applicability, consider the following: -

*Nature of Purchase*: Identify the type of goods or services being purchased. -

*Supplier's Status*: Determine the supplier's status, including their PAN and exemption status. -

*Threshold Limits*: Verify the threshold limits for TDS applicability.
