15 May 2009 Dear All,

VERY URGENT!!

I would like to know about the Tax we deduct on Maintenance Charges of Office Premises.

We deduct Rent tax on rent for office premises then what would be the tax treatement for maintenance charges.

There are some controversy about this, so would like to know the % of the same.

It is URGENT!!!

Regards,

Amit Deokule

15 May 2009 You need to deduct the TDS as per sec. 194C i.e tds on contract charges. Although the parties may be same for rent & maint. contract but the nature of payment is different.
