As per Income Tax act we need to deduct tax on advertisement contract U/s 194C. In the above case we are doing advertisement through the website. The payment is autometically debited from our corporate credit card account based on the clicking by the user to the given link. We booked expenses after words.
My query is the TDS obligation how can I meet? because the amount has already been paid ( since paid/ credited which ever is earlier as per 194C) . Do I need to paid the TDS from our side and issue a debit note to the vendor. Or if there is any other way please let me know.

There shall not be any TDS obligation if server/beneficiary is located outside India.(facebook & yahoo both are US sites) No other formalities need to be complied with in such a case as amount is paid by credit card. This shall be governed by 195 and not sec 194C.
