The amount credited to the party's account.
Since, it is a discount, Rs. 30000/- might have been credited. Hence TDS to be deducted on Rs. 30K.
On the other hand, if X Ltd had deducted the amount of Rs. 6K from the bill itself, the net amount will be credited to the transporter's account. Hence, TDS is to be deducted on 24K only.
