10 October 2008 Hire Charge on time basis means hire charge for actual time the machine is put to use by the hirer. Then 194c as the payment is for carrying for carrying out any work.

If there is fixed monthly charges(whether machine is put to use, remain idle or over used during the material period, then 194I is applicable. This is what commonly understood as rent.
