13 November 2023 Hi Sir,

My company booked hotel rooms for Annual meet of employees. Company booked hotel for accommodation purpose and the tariff includes breakfast and Wi fi charges also.This is not a regular basis as it is for meeting purpose only. Is TDS applicable on payment to hotel? Total Payable amount comes to around 80,000.

14 November 2023 Hi Sir,

Pardon I missed to mention a point. Company have booked the hotel through a travel agency and agency booked accommodation in multiple hotels.

Is TDS applicable if the hotel was booked only for rooms and this was not on a regular basis?
