In case of rent, liability to deduct TDS arises only if the amount paid to a person during the financial year exceeds Rs. 1,80,000;
Since in case of A, amount is Rs.2,40,000, therefore TDS is needed to be deducted. In case of others, no need to deduct TDS because amount paid to each person does not exceed Rs. 1,80,000.
