21 January 2011 HELLO EVERYONE ,

I HV A QUERRY REGARDING APPLICABILITY OF TDS ON FREIGHT REMITTANCE TO A FOREIGN CARGO (IT INCLUDES BOTH AIR CARGO AS WELL AS SHIPPING CARGO) COMPANY IN US WITH RESPECT TO IMPORT OF GOODS.....

KINDLY HELP IN SOLVING IT....
ALSO I M MORE CONCERNED WITH AIR CARGO......

THANK YOU

21 January 2011 Please refer CBDT Circular No.723 Dtd.19/05/1995.
Payment of freight to foreign companies is exempted from deduction of TDS under section 172(1) of IT Act.
Provisions of 194C & 195 of the IT Act has no application in respect of payments made to towards freights to foreigh companies.

21 January 2011 Please just confirm that now the TDS is not applicable to even indian companies.
