20 May 2010 As per the provisions of Sec. 194J of the Income Tax Act, TDS is deductible on "any sum" payable to the recipient irrespective of the fact that the same forms income or not. However, the sum has to be fees for professional or technical service or royalty or the sum for not carying any business (refer Sec. 28(va). Since the sum of Rs. 28611/- paid to the recipient is not such sum, therefore TDS is not deductible on Rs.28611
