I agree wit Mr. sharma. If there exists an employer employee relationship between the two persons only sec. 192 will apply irrespective of the person employed is a qualified person and his profession falls under the notified profession u/s 44AA.
The amount paid to the person will fall under the category of salary and TDS is deductable u/s 192 and not as professional fee u/s 194J. (If somebody thinks otherwise, all the professions who are working under employment will be subjected to TDS u/s 194J and not u/s 192)
One more point that has to consider here is the availability of PAN of the employee. If the employee does not have a valid pan the net taxable income would fall under the purview of 206AA and TDS has to be effected @ 20%.
