As per section 9 the income of a resident by way of commission is not treated to deemed to accrue and arise in India, the income will not be taxable in India. The on sales commission income no TDS is required to be deducted. CBDT has also issues a circular on this in the year 2005. The text of the same is reproduced here under for your ready reference.
Non-resident agent operating outside the country - As clarified earlier in Circular No. 23, dated 23-7-1969 (see under section 5), where the non-resident agent operates outside the country, no part of his income arises in India, and since the payment is usually remitted directly abroad, it cannot be held to have been received by or on behalf of the agent in India. Such payments were therefore, held to be not taxable in India. This clarification still prevails, in view of the fact that the relevant sections [section 5(2) and section 9] have not undergone any change in this regard. No tax is therefore deductible under section 195 from export commission and other related charges payable to such a non-resident for services rendered outside India.—Circular : No. 786, dated 7-2-2000.
However this circular has been withdrawn during the FY 2009-10, still one can claim that the TDS is not applicable under section 195 on Sales commission as the income is not accruing and arising to non resident in India. Hope, this clarifies your issue.
