Need to deduct TDS on total bill value Rs.791013 only under sec.194C. there is such exemption given if the payment directly passed beneficiary and no tds apply. how ever the party is treating tool kit & stipend also in his billing value only. so tds apply u/s.194C. rate will be 2% if the payee is corporate, non corporate 1%
