It is not generally but provisions of TDS are not applicable to all Govt. Payments. As such, there is no list which one should referred to. If the payment is to a corporation established by or under a Central Act & whose income is exempt from tax, no TDS is required. Thus, if the payment is to any other Govt. company, TDS is attracted. The relevant provisions are in Sec.196 of the Act.
