Professional Charges paid to a foreigner/company for services rendered overseas is not taxable in India and no TDS is required. In your case purchase of textile design from US is deemded to be a service rendered aboard by a foreigner and hence no TDS u/s195 is required. Also such income is taxable in the hands of the recipient in US only. You may refer to DTAA bt USA and India
