Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the applicability of Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) on sponsorship payments. While initial advice suggested no TDS, it was clarified that Section 194C applies if a single payment exceeds £30,000 or the aggregate exceeds £100,000 annually. The TDS rate is 1% for individuals/HUFs and 2% for other entities.

Sponsorship for what?
With few assumptions based on your Query. You are not required to deduct TDS on sponsorship given to society. It is not covered under any levy sections of TDS.
Thanks
Sponsorship payment is covered under Section 194C.

This clause is applicable only if a single payment exceeds30,000/- or aggregate payment during the year is more than 100000/- whichever is earlier.

 TDS is deductible under Section 194C @ 1% if the payment is made to an individual / HUF or @ 2% if payment is made to other persons
