I think this is considered as Commission on sales & thats why the payment as incentive is tax deductible @ 11.33% for companies,firm for individuals or huf payment to them less than Rs. 10 lacs then @ 10.3% & for individual or huf payment more than 10 lacs @ 11.33%. TDS applicable only when payment exceeds Rs. 2500/- in a year as per sec. 194H. These r the rates applicable from 1st june'2007.Before that it was 5.665% , 5.15% and 5.665 % respectively.

Yes. Bcoz Comission is paid to Broker or agents and whereas incentive is paid to employee to encourage his job or sales activity. Hence there would not be any TDS on incentive. If Employee salary exceeds his Exempt income limit then TDS may be deducted under section 192B (Other than Govt Employees).
