Please re-confirm the applicable TDS rates before making payment. Ensuring timely deduction, deposit, and filing avoids unnecessary financial burden and keeps the transaction compliant.
If a Non-Resident Individual purchases property of more than ₹50 lakhs consideration value, they are liable to deduct and pay TDS on sale of immovable property. A valid PAN number is mandatory to file TDS. NRI buyers are advised to consult a Chartered Accountant if they want to purchase property without a valid PAN number.
We advise you to make TDS payment separately for each milestone. Should you choose to make a lump sum payment, please consult your Chartered Accountant.
