You have not stated exactly what type of work you get done from others . I presume it is some specialised professional or technical work and on that presumption , am answering your question.
you will have to deduct tax for any professional or technical work taken from other person if payment exceeds Rs 20,000. for
1. any professional job you have taken from another person.
2. any technical job you received from another person.
For both 1 & 2 above, deduction is to be made u/s 194J and rate of deduction is 10% +SC+Cess. The rate chart can be found here.
The TDS should be deducted and deposited by you . A certificate should be issued to the deductee by you in the prescribed form. Then a return of TDS has to be submitted.
That apart it is also taxable under the Service Tax Act
