Characterisation of payments under Annual Maintenance Contracts for computers, DG sets, elevators and telecommunication services was determinative for TDS treatment. The tribunal found that routine periodic repair and upkeep under AMCs constitute payment for work/maintenance (works contract) and thus attract TDS accordingly; such payments do not qualify as managerial, professional or fees for technical services.
