If we buy software with VAT alone, is it applicable for TDS?

No. TDS is not applicable. Such a transaction is a pure purchase.

No, TDS is not applicable...

Not Applicable Because That transaction is Purly purchase of Software. TDS Applicable only on Service.

Dear

Kindly Refer

C.B.D.T has issued a Notification No. 21/2012 [ F. NO. 142/10/2012-SO (TPL)] S.O. 1323(E) dated 13-6-2012  which comes in to force from 1-7-2012  provides that no deduction of tax on software shall be made on the following specified payment under section 194J of the Act, namely:-

 

Payment by a person (hereinafter referred to as the transferee) for acquisition of software from another person, being resident, (hereinafter referred to as the transferor), where-

  1. the software is acquired in a subsequent transfer and the transferor has transferred the software without modification,
  2. tax has been deducted-
    1.  under section 194J on payment for any previous transfer of such software; or
    2. under section 195 on payment for any previous transfer of such software from a non-resident, and
  3. The transferee obtains a declaration from the transferor that the tax has been deducted either under sub-clause (a) or (b) along with the Permanent Account Number of the transferor. 

 

Further Refer amendmend in budget Finance Act 2012 in Clause 9 (1) (V) & (Vi) also read explanation 6.

 

So it is advisable to deduct Tax @ 10%.

 Regards
