Yes, you are liable to deduct TDS under section 194H of Income tax in case the payment made to broker exceeds Rs. 5000... @ 10%

As in ur case the amount is Rs 1 lac. so u need to deduct TDS @ 10% irrespective of the fact that it is the first payment..

helo mr.damodaran answer for yours query,

person liable to deduct tax: any person (not being an individual or huf,whose accounts are NOT subject to tax audit u/s 44AB,in the preceding financial year).

category of payee: any person resident in india.

rate of deuction of tax: 10%.

no T.D.S: aggregate payment does not exceed rs.5000 during the financial year.

CONCLUSION: IF YOURS ACCOUNTS ARE SUBJECT TO TAX AUDIT U/S 44AB IN THE PRECEDING FINANCIAL YEAR YOU ARE LAIBLE TO DEDUCT TAX U/S 194H,INCOME TAX ACT,1962.

NOTE: AMOUNT ON WHICH T.D.S HAS TO BE MADE IS PAYMENT INCLUSIVE OF SERVICE.
