My query is where a landlord has given a premises and furniture and fixture situated in the said premises on rent to a same tenant byway of a separate agreement, and agreegate payment in a year exceeds Rs:180000/- wheather provisions of Section 194 I are applicable?

“Rent” means any payment, by whatever name called, under any lease, sub-lease, tenancy or any other agreement or arrangement for the use of (either separately or together) any – (a) land; or (b) building (including factory building); or (c) land appurtenant to a building (including factory building); or (d) machinery; or (e) plant; or (f) equipment; or (g) furniture; or (h) fittings, whether or not any or all of the above are owned by the payee.
The words used in the definition is "either separately or together" hence TDS is applicable.
