TDS on Software is not applicable as per NOTIFICATION NO. 21/2012 [F.No.142/10/2012-SO(TPL)] S.O. 1323(E),
TDS on customised software would fall under the purview of sec. 194J.
TDS on software maintainance ,,,..194J will be applicable
no tds on purchase of software
If the Software is purchased without any customization, then there is no liability to deduct TDS. Such transaction shall be treated as pure purchase by the buyer.
Whereas, if the Software is supplied as per the specifications of the customer, then TDS shall be applicable. As per my knowledgeTDS shall be deductible u/s 194C.

Recently, we got customised software to our company. we have another company which is located in another state. first software is cost is more than Rs. 30000(as per 194J, tds limit ) ex. Rs. 50,000. we had deducted the tds(10%) of the cost. again we got another copy to our another state company. cost of the software is less than Rs. 30, 000. my question is, whether tds(10%) will attract on this cost or not... . pl. help me.
"B" is a Pvt Ltd Company in India which is 100% Subsidiary of German Company "A". A supplies standardised software (i.e. licence key and there is no customisation involved) to B. B in turn sells the licence key to its customer in India C without any modification.
B has deducted TDS u/s 195 @ 10% since 2011.
B is collecting VAT on the software sold to Indian customer C. No TDS deducted by C on payments to B.
Query:
1. Whether TDS is deductable on the standarised software (can be regarded as goods) being purchased from German Company ?
2. Whether VAT has to be collected on the sale to Indian Customer ? In that case we cannot take the benefit of the NOTIFICATION NO. 21/2012 [F.No.142/10/2012-SO(TPL)] S.O. 1323(E),
DATED 13-6-2012.
