Hi,

I need clarification regarding the filing of Form 141 for a jointly purchased property.

Example:
Property Buyers: Myself and my wife (joint buyers)
Current instalment amount: ₹10,00,000 (dummy amount for illustration)
Payment: I alone have paid the entire ₹10,00,000 instalment.
My wife's contribution: ₹0
Agreement: Both of us are mentioned as buyers, but the Agreement for Sale does not specify any buyer-wise percentage or proportion of consideration.

While filling Form 141, the portal asks for the “Proportion of total sale consideration to be paid/credited by the buyer (%)”, and the proportions of all buyers must total 100%.

Could you please clarify:

What percentage should be entered for me and my wife?
Should I enter 100% for myself, since I paid the entire instalment?
If my wife paid ₹0, how should her share be entered, especially if the portal does not allow adding a buyer with 0%?
Does my wife need to file a separate Form 141 using her own PAN, even though she did not make any payment towards this instalment?
How should the ₹10,00,000 instalment and corresponding TDS be allocated between us?

Please advise on the correct procedure.

We are an Indian company supplying manpower/services to a customer in Saudi Arabia, from whom 15% tax has been deducted from our payment.
Please clarify what this 15% international/withholding tax represents and under which Saudi tax provision it has been deducted.
Also, please confirm whether this tax is applicable to our manpower supply services under the India–Saudi DTAA.
Finally, please advise whether the 15% tax deducted can be refunded/recovered from Saudi Arabia or claimed as Foreign Tax Credit in India

Subject: Guidance required on TDS under Section 195 for purchase of flat from NRI sellers

I am purchasing a residential flat in Kolkata from two NRI sellers (husband and wife), each holding a 50% share.

Details:

- Total sale consideration: ₹44,00,000
- Sellers purchased the flat in 2010 for approximately ₹25,00,000.
- Registration is planned for 29 July 2026.
- We (buyers) have already obtained TAN.
- I am purchasing the property with a home loan.
- The sellers have not provided any Lower/Nil TDS Certificate from the Income Tax Department.

I need guidance on the following:

1. How should TDS under Section 195 be calculated in this case?
2. Should TDS be deducted on the entire sale consideration or only on the estimated capital gains?
3. What TDS rate is applicable if the sellers do not provide a Lower/Nil Deduction Certificate?
4. Is surcharge and health & education cess applicable? If yes, how should the final TDS be computed?
5. Since there are two sellers with equal shares, should separate Form 27Q returns and separate Form 16A certificates be filed for each seller?
6. What documents should the buyer collect from the sellers to avoid any future tax liability?
7. Since a home loan is involved, what instructions should be given to the bank regarding release of the loan amount after deducting TDS?
8. Section 195 or Section 393 which one is applicable?

I would appreciate a detailed calculation and practical guidance to ensure full compliance.

Dear Sir,

We have made a new TDS payment using Challan Code 1026 for Professional Fees deducted at 2%.

However, the current payment pertains to Royalty under Section 194J, where TDS has been deducted at 10%. We noticed that the challan is showing Code 1027.

Kindly confirm whether Challan Code 1027 is correct for this payment or if any correction is required.

Thank you

A TAX PAYER RECEIVED ADVANCE AGAINST SALE OF PROPERTY. THE BUYER DEDUCTED TDS THEREON. NOW DUE TO DISPUTE, THE SELLER IS REQUIRED TO REFUND THE NET AMOUNT PLUS TDS DEDUCTED. IS THERE ANY LIABILITY FOR THE SELLER TO DEDUCT TAX ON THIS REFUND AMOUNT?

I have received a lower deduction certificate under Section 197 of Income Tax Act specifying a TDS rate of 0.31%. The total sale consideration is ₹90 lakhs.

I’m confused about how to apply this rate:

Should I deduct TDS at the flat rate of 0.31% as mentioned in the certificate, or
Do I need to add surcharge and cess separately over and above this rate?

Also, one person suggested a split approach:

₹1 lakh already paid (ADVANCE) to be taxed at 12.5% + surcharge + cess, and
The remaining ₹89 lakhs at 0.31% + surcharge + cess

However, my understanding is that the rate mentioned in the certificate should be applied directly, without adding anything extra, as per Section 197.

Can someone please clarify the correct method and help compute the exact TDS amount?
