No TDS to be deducted..

As the payment or amount credited  exceeds Rs.30000, the payer is under  an obligation to deduct tax at source but  only on Rs.29000 (excluding GST as per CBDT circular).

What if a bill raised is of rs.30000 but the aggregate amount during the year doesnt exceeds rs.100000. Are we still liable to withhold tax us 194c?
