First of all You should clarify Whether the expense is a commission or a Fee/Charges
both the commission & charges paid to Clearing & Forwarding Agent shall be liable to TDS.
Commision under Sec 194H-10%
Fee/Charges under Sec 194C-1% or 2% as the case may be
If there is specific contract agreement between you and C & F, the charges paid to him can be treated under 194C
