Depending upon your organisational structure, you are required to deduct TDS on Contractual payments. If you are an Individual or an HUF, and your accounts of the preceding previous year were not under the tax audit, no TDS is required to be deducted. . In other cases for Individual and HUF contractors TDS is required to be deducted @ 1% of the Bill Amount and in other case rate of TDS will be 2% of the bill of the contractor when the singlr bill amount exceeds Rs 30000 or aggregate billing by a particular contractor during the FY exceeds Rs 75000. . TDS is to be deducted at the time of crediting or making the payment, whichever is earlier.
