TDS on Railway Freight

There is no TDS for Govt.

Dear Sathyanarayan,

Still TDS is not applicable in this case since it amounts to reimbursements of expenses..

I know u will say that TDS is applicable on reimbursements u/s 194 C & 194 J, But friend essence under those section is the performance of service whereas in the present case it is the "contract for sale/purchase"..Hence No TDS is applicable...

TDS is not applicable for transport of goods by railways...

"The Finance Act, 1995 has amended the provisions regarding tax deduction at source contained in section 194C of the Income-tax Act. As per the amended provisions, deduction of tax at source is to be made, inter alia, from payments made in respect of contracts for carriage of goods and passengers by any mode of transport other than Railways."
