TDS u/s 194C w.e.f.01-10-09

hi, the deduction of TDS is based on the amount paid to him. So if the payment is in excess of Rs. 20,000 per contract or Rs. 50,000 pa and if the individual provided PAN, then TDS is 1%.

I think i answered your first part of the query.

TDS need not be deducted if Transporter Furnishes PAN.But the deductor has to furnish the details in the prescribed Format

 In some websites, i read that the rule that TDS SHOULD NOT BE DEDUCTED IN CASE TRANSPORTER FURNISHES PAN IS W.E.F. 01-04-2010. so what's truth?

No Tds will be deducted on transporter if we are making payment after 01.10.2009 (first part answer)

2nd part answer, when tds is not deucted then there is no need to mention 0 tax amount in quarterly return.

I hope same clear the query.

Regarding 2nd part of the Question: The deduction has to submit the PAN details received in presctibed manner. But till now, it seems, no Form is prescribed.!
