TDS Not Applicable on Printing & Stationery Purchases; Applies to Services and Contracts with Exemptions Available A participant in a discussion forum inquired about the applicability of Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) on invoices from vendors, specifically regarding printing, stationery, and municipal taxes. A respondent clarified that TDS is not applicable to purchases of printing and stationery, but it applies to payments for services such as contracts, professional services, rent, and interest, with basic exemptions available. Another question about TDS applicability on deposits was raised, to which the response was that deposits are not subject to TDS as they are considered security deposits, not service considerations.
