in my opnion you will give fixed assets for hiring so it is applicable u/s 194I rent and you also received rent from the bank and tds is not applicable because total grss receipt is less than rs.120000/ in the year so bank is not liable to deduct tax on hiring of generator

AS THE BANK IS GIVING THE FIXED CONSIDERATION FOR USE OF GENERATOR AND THE DIESEL COST IS BORNE BY THE PROVIDER, IT IS NOT RENTING OF THE MACHINERY. IT IS AN CONTRACT AND HENCE SEC 194C WILL APPLY. IN RENTING OF MACHINERY, THE REPAIR AND MAINTENANCE IS OF BANK AND NOT OF OWNER.
