DEAR FRIENDS
I'M CONFUSED WHETHER TDS ON CONTRACT BASIS IS DEDUCTED ON AMOUNT AFTER APPLICABILITY OR ON THE WHOLE AMOUNT WHEN IT'S APPLICABLE, WHICH IS RS.20,000/-
PLS LET ME KNOW AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.

It should be deducted on the whole amount. The limit of Rs.20,000.00 is not the basic exemption limit provided. It is the ceiling, beyond which the entire amount attracts TDS.
