TDS rate is 2% when payment is made to Contactor other than Individual or HUF.
Education cess is not leviable w.e.f 01-10-2009.
In case some reimbursements are also claimed by the CHA like Custom Duty paid on your behalf etc. On these no TDS will be deducted provided in gives the sufficent documenatary evidence for the same.
