How to claim TDS on Property tax paid as Seller

Quick Summary
This discussion guides sellers on claiming Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) on property sales when the buyer has already deducted and paid the tax. It clarifies the buyer's responsibilities, including obtaining a TAN, deducting TDS at the correct rate, depositing it with the government, filing TDS returns, and issuing a TDS certificate (Form 16B) to the seller. Sellers need to provide their PAN to the buyer and ensure the TDS payment is reflected in their Form 26AS or AIS before claiming it in their Income Tax Return.

Hi All.

 

Sorry for revisiting the thread - however please can you guide me on

1. When Buyer files eTDS which section will they need to fill-in to reflect the TDS amount paid and add my (seller) PAN details so that it is reflected in my AIS ?

2. Buyer paid TDS by deducting money from sale amount and paid it on eportal (pg6 OTHER SUMS SECTION 195) and downloaded the challan. After that how can buyer file 26QB without making re-payment.

 

Kindly help.

 

Thank you

 

The buyer should deduct TDS under section 194-IA and report it in Form 26QB. Ask for the Form 26QB acknowledgement and payment challan details; once processed, the TDS should appear in your Form 26AS/AIS and be available as credit in your income-tax return. A separate e-TDS return is generally not required for section 194-IA: Form 26QB is the buyer’s challan-cum-statement. Ensure the property and PAN details are correct.

You can claim the credit in your ITR for the year in which the sale took place, subject to the credit appearing in tax records and the return being filed for that assessment year. If the sale was in FY 2024–25, the return is for AY 2025–26; the earliest filing date depends on when the relevant ITR utility is released. The excess TDS is refundable after your tax liability on the capital gain and other income is computed—it is not necessarily refundable in full.

This sale-and-credit check fits naturally into the capital-gains and return-preparation workflow. Manual tracking across buyer filings, tax credits and return schedules is difficult; automation reduces repetitive work while professional judgment remains in control.
