27 January 2011 We are production house producing tv commercial for advertising agencies. some agencies deduct tax @ 2% us 94c and some deducted @ 10% us 94J. I want to know which section is correct and why there is difference in deduction?

Thanks

28 January 2011 But we are working in the margin of 15 to 20% and that is also not in all the cases. then how it is possible to run the business where the tds has been deducted @ 10%

28 January 2011 TDS is not your expense.
It is tax paid. And if higher TDS is deducted, than you will get refund also.

For the advertising Agency TDS is to be deducted at 2% under 194C.

Ask your customer to deduct 2% only.

28 January 2011 Sorry..
My mistake to write Ad agency in explanation above.
Better to deduct tax 194C at 2%.
and i dont think it is a professional service.
