Hello Sir,
I am working as an accountant in pathology and laboratory Pvt Ltd.
I have a question regarding TDS deduction.I have received a bill of repairs and maintenance expenses worth ₹ 84000 /-
Payment have to be made in cash basis. If I pay the bill by different amount below ₹ 30000/-on different dates than tell me is the TDS may applicable on payment or on bill issued by party.!
TDS applicability on expense payments: splitting payments below threshold may avoid withholding; bookkeeping may not attract professional TDS. Whether TDS is required on a repair and maintenance bill when paid in multiple cash installments below the statutory threshold, and whether withholding is governed by the bill or by actual payments, with respondents asserting that the professional fees TDS provision applies annually and that bookkeeping by a non professional may be excluded, and that splitting payments below the threshold will avoid TDS on each installment.
