Do you feel that his salary of Rs.12,000/- pm falls within the taxable range of income?

In that case your own question is wrong. How you are concerned with the payment to a watchman by the security contractor?
You could have asked a question about TDS on payment to the security contractor not to the watchman. But, the question arises, how much is the total contract payment you are supposed to make every month and every year to the contractor?

Before answering blank, many issues are to be determined like a) Whether Society is having TAN b) Whether Society is an assessee having PAN c) Whether Society is engaged into any kind of business activities. If the answer to all the three questions is YES, Society is liable to deduct tax under section 194C and the rate applicable at present is (i) if the payment is being made to an Individual @ 1% (ii) otherwise @ 2%.
