12 July 2013 In every PSU, temporary advance are given to employee to execute certain works ( supply of labour or other misc works, maintenance work etc.).The employee in turn engage petty contractors to execute the work and payment is made by the employee directly to the contractor. The Bill/voucher is obtained by the employee & submit to the employer for adjustment of advance lying in his name.

Query: whether the employee is liable to deduct TDS while making payment to contractor ( the amount involve is more than Rs.30,000 to single party/contractor).

It is a very common practice in every company to execute the work by giving temporary advance to the employee).
