Normally TDS is recoverable only for circuit bills under 194J.

Dear Sir,

Would you please elaborate!

[DR.MARIAPPAN GOVINDARAJAN]

No Tax is recovered from source for post paid telephone bills and mobile bills. No TDS for prepaid calls also. Circuit is provided for corporates, colleges, schools for providing internet connections at the lesser rate by making agreements between the telecom operator and the recipient of service. In such cases the recipient of service is liable to deduct tax and remit the same to the exchequer of the Government.
