Deduction of TDS on amount paid to Tent House

[Pradeep Jain]

Dear Sir,

We have engaged a Tent house for some function at the Plant . We wish to know that on this transaction TDS will be attracted under which section 194C for Contract Service 194I  Rent and Hire charges.

Regards

Pradeep Jain

TDS under section 194C for contract service will attract and not 194I

AI Summary

TDS on contract services applies to tent-house hire for events, treated as contract payment rather than rent withholding.
The payment to a tent house for a function at the plant is a contract/service payment; TDS under section 194C applies to such contract payments for tent-house hire and section 194I-style rent withholding is not attracted.
