TDS on Rent & Professional Fees

Dear Chartered Accountant,


1. We are paying rent of 55000/- & maintainance charges of 5000/- every month to an induvidual who is having PAN number. and we are deducting 10% TDS on Rent amt of 55000/- only. Is this correct or we have to deduct TDS on Maintainance charges also?

2. We are paying professional fees to an Advocate (company) and TDS deducting on whole amount of the bill. The bill includes the break up of drafting charges XXX and printing, postage, photo copying XXX. and service tax XXX. Please advise me that we have to deduct TDS on final invoice amount or only on drafting charges?

Kindly advise me on the above 2 points.

Thanks & regards/ Kumar - Accountant

1. No need to deduct tds on maintenance charges. 2. You have to deduct tds on final account u/s 194J if the single bill threshold limit cross to 30,000.00

As I mentioned the bill break up above, we have to deduct TDS on total bill amt (inclusive of service tx) or only professional fees (before misc. charges & service tax)? Can you provide me the link on this regard.

Ya you have to deduct tds on rent before providing service tax..

a spcecial circular has been issued by cbdt regarding renting of immovable property case to clear this doubt....

 

in case of any other service deduct tds after providing service tax....!!!
