NRI : Filing of Tax deduction at source & tax returns
Whether tds u/s 194IA required to be deducted as property is owned by co-owners but stamp duty value is 51lac ?
- TDS (Tax Deducted at Source) under Section 194IA is required to be deducted if the value of the property transferred (as per stamp duty value) is more than Rs. 50 Lakhs.
- In case of co-owners, if the stamp duty value of the property is more than Rs. 50 Lakhs then TDS needs to be deducted. If multiple parties are there in the sale agreement, TDS is calculated on the pro-rata basis of the amount paid/credited to each co-owner.
- So If the stamp duty value of the property is more than 51Lac then TDS is required to be deducted under Section 194IA from the amount paid or credited to the co-owners as per their share.
It’s important to check the details of the transaction for the calculation of TDS, it is also important to issue TDS certificate and file the TDS return in a timely manner to avoid any late fee and interest.
