Dear darsh*ta As per section 194C of IT ACT,1961 if you make a single payment in excess of Rs 20000, then you are liable to deduct tds on this payment. but if two or three contracts make in excess of Rs 50000 P.a. then you also have liable to deduct tds.

Let take an example

If A is yours Contractor and you pay him in excess of Rs 20000 in single payment then you should deduct Tds as prescribed rate, if you make payment in installments and your gross payment makes it in excess of Rs 50000 then you r lible to deduct tds.

hope you should understand with this example.

if payment to/ credit is given to contractor for rs 20000 in one time then tds is deductable . but if the payment in one time is less than 20000 but total payment /credit given to the contractor is rs 50000 in one year then tax is required to be deducted at source. hence we have to see both the limit for tds. this amount has been changed from the fy 2010-11 to 30000 nad 75000 respectively
