If we have to make payment to a labour contractor, then on what amount TDS has to be deducted. Can we deduct on total invoice amount including service tax or on service tax before amount????

In the Cicular No. 4 dated 28-04-2008, board has clarified that tax deduction at source under section 194-I of the Income Tax Act, would be required to be made on the amount of rent paid/payable without including the service tax. But this rule is not applicable for other sections. So in your case TDS to be deducted on amount inclusive of service tax.
