05 May 2009 Company A owns the premises in which Company B has its office.. Company B pays rent on such property... Now Company A has charged electricity bill on Company B by way of Debit Note.. The basis of the bill is the assumption of usage of equipment used by Company B... Eg. 2 A/c working for 8 hrs. for the month... 5 computer working for 7 hrs... multiply the above hrs, by the expected consumption of such electronic devices... Whether TDS will be attracted on such expenses...
