Tds on rent

U have to deducted it,

however u can wait upto Rs 180,000 limit not cross

try to convince the owner, there is no loss in deducting tds

since it is adjusted with his/her tax liablity

It is recommended to deduct tax monthly only..

other wise ,

once it exceeds 180000 you have to deduct tds on entire amount on next bill for which he definetely will not agree

So it is recommended to deduct tax every month

however he can claim refund of that tds by filing his return of income, if he is having savings enough,

so there is no problem to your owner also

Other wise your exp is disallowed.....  :( 

It would not be allowed as an expense if rent paid is more than Rs. 1,80,000..

The only way it can be claimed as an expense is when Rent paid is less than Rs. 1,80,000... so maybe you can pay some amount in cheque and some amount in cash..

jUst confirm whether that property is in joint name or the sole name.if it is in joint name then limit of 180000 applies to both the owners separately.

1. If the office is in the name of one person then the property can be transferred in the name of 2 family members.
2. After that rental agreement shall be changed accordingly, company & 2 family members
3. 2 cheques shall be issued every month
4. every month rent shall not exceed Rs.15000/-

I hope this is with in the law.

Any suggestions........please 

Yesbut according to the limits as specified for both the partners...
