 dear valji,as we are doing contract with trainers...are you sure that tds to be deuct under section 194j?

 

 

it will come under 194J -Professional and Technical services not in 194C -Contractors

it will come under sec 194 j i am sure

Please note that for application of TDS u/s 194J, there shud be some professional fees to be incurred.  Professional expenditure is said to be incurred if you are giving any advise on any matter and which requries application of mind.

In the present case the trainers are not giving any advise on any matter & they do not require any application of mind.  They are just imparting the knowledge that they have to teh trainees. 

Hence TDS u/s 194C should be applicable as ther exists an contractual agreemtn between teh two parties.

Undoubtely 194c hi lagega.
