at the time of credit of such sum to the account of the payee or at the time of payment thereof in cash or by issue of a cheque or draft or by any other mode, whichever is earlier
Please note....on provisions like say debit audit fees credit provision for audit fees.......NO tds is required to be done
TDS is required to be done ONLY if "such sum is credited to the account of payee OR at the time of payment, whichever is earlier

The sections....194C, J I etc.....talk of the same concept......credit or payment whichever is earlier...... and what is your EXACT botheration? Tell me......why do you want case law or guidance note etc etc?? Whenever there is any AMBIGUITY, then only such things like case law or guidance note is looked into. But these provisions of section 194C....J ...I etc are very clear...So no need for any guidance..... Please tell me what is bothering you in this?

As Per Circular : No. 619, dated 4-12-1991, credit of any income to any account whether called "Suspense account" or by any other name shall be deemed to be credit of such income to the account of the payee
AS per Circular : No. 5/2002, dated 30-7-2002, Suppose In Relation To Interest, Tax has to be deducted at source at the time of credit of interest to the account of the payee or at the time of payment thereof, whichever is earlier. If credit is given to the account of the payee or payment is made to him annually, the tax may be deducted annually. It may be clarified that a credit to interest payable account or suspense account, etc., is also taken as credit to the account of the payee, even though this credit is not reflected separately in the payee’s account.
So, Provisions Created On 31-Mar-16 For Satisfing Accruval Concept Also, We Are Required To Deduct TDS.
