Hi,
If i m not wrong than the query u are asking is in respect of TDS to be deducted on reimbursement of expenses to freight & forwarding agent or not ?
advice your Freight & forwading agent to issue different bills for reimbursement of expenses and his commission or his service income .If he issues differentbills then TDS on only his commisssion or service charges.
In other cases on gross value . i.e including reimbursement of expenses.
