Mr X maintans books on cash basis. He earns professional income. He wants to make a payment amounting to Rs. 120000 in the year to a single party as professional charges in relation to his own business.
Can Mr X get away without deducting TDS just because he is maintaining books on cash basis ?
If not, there any other alternative way for him to get this expense allowed without deducting TDS?
