If the customer has purchased the Windows Software that means you must be a dealer for Microsoft. As per the lastest judgement by Delhi High Court in case of CIT v/s Dynamics Vertical Software India P Ltd TDS is not required to be deducted.

The point is that Windows Software is operating program and which is essentials to run the computer and without which the computer cannot operate so as per the accounting principle the cost of the Windows package needs to capitalise with the Hardware computer. General perception is that you need not deduct TDS on Capitalised amount. You will always be liable to pay TDS irrespective of whether expenditure is claimed or not.
The case law I referred is from CA final case study. This case law was for the payment to Microsoft in case of royalty to non resident. You may ignore the case law which I referred originally for a while. I take my words back.
In that case it is right to deduct TDS under 194J as Royalty on whole of the Invoice Amount.
