Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the rules for Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) on professional fees under Section 194J. It examines whether TDS is required when payments span multiple financial years and individual bill amounts are below the threshold. The key factors determining TDS applicability include whether the payment is a single consolidated amount or for past services, and the tax audit status of the preceding financial year.

If single of 35000 then TDS is to be deducted
Was it turnover for 3 years or exp ?

If it is single payment for a single person then Tds is applicable .

You need to check the tax audit applicability in preceding FY
If Amount paid against that three bill of previous years in FY 21-22, than No TDS
If past bills are paid in FY-2021-22 then tds is not applicable since each bill is below 30000/- and ceiling is applicable per year
