better to deduct TDS as per 194I since the case which you have explained purely does not fall under either nature of expense as defined under 194c

as such there's no requirement to deduct TDS as per the provisions. but unfortunately if your case selected for scrutiny and the AO will disallow the aforesaid expenses and you have to get relief only in appeals. so it's better to deduct TDS to avoid all these things

Rama krishnan ji provided proper practical solution. better to deduct at 10% under 194I and get into safe zone.

It is not required to deduct TDS in your case as it is within the limit of 1.8 l and also being a single time payment for the year.
however it would attract 194 I not 194 c..in case exceeds the limit
