Dear Experts
I have got bill of Accounting Software for Rs 60000-00 support for a year. As per my knowledge & belief this is the service in capacity of professional & technical service and tds must be 194 J. But the vendor is resisting it to be contract for the maint. I may also claim with my client that I have contract for books writing for the year similarly a C.A., Lawyer and Technical Engineer may go same way ? Please guide how to differentiate between professional & technical apart from contract (means how to argue to differntiate that certain contracts may be under 194 J, as professional & Technical services are also contract to pay for the services received)
Thanks to all the persons reading it and replying it.
With Best Regards
Vidya Sagar Shukla

For definition of professional you may see 44AA of the Income Tax Act. In my opinion this is not a professional service but a contract work.
