WE are paying rent for staff accomdation and were deducting TDS on the rent amount of Rs.12017/- which exceeded 1.2 lacs as per the existing threshold limit. But as per the new amendement effective from 1st july 2010 the threshold limit is Rs.1.80 lacs for TDS on rent. Should we deduct tax for the rent paid from July 2010 or is it not required. Please clarify.
