Query – TDS on purchase of land from NRI under Income-tax Act, 2025


This query is : Open 

12 September 2026 A resident entity is purchasing land in India from a Non-Resident Indian (NRI).

The transaction/payment is proposed during FY 2026-27, i.e. after 01-04-2026, and therefore the provisions of the Income-tax Act, 2025 would apply.

I have the following queries:

Which section of the Income-tax Act, 2025 is applicable for TDS on purchase of immovable property from an NRI?
What should be selected under the "New Section" and "Section Code" while making the TDS payment?
The TDS portal is showing Section Code 1057 with a 30% rate. Is this the correct code for purchase of land from an NRI?
Is TDS required to be deducted at 30% on the entire sale consideration, or only on the taxable capital gain/income component?
If the NRI has held the land for more than 24 months and the transaction qualifies as Long-Term Capital Gain, what is the correct TDS rate under the new Act?
If the seller obtains a lower/nil deduction certificate, how should the TDS be handled?

Would appreciate guidance from members who have experience with NRI property transactions under the Income-tax Act, 2025, particularly regarding the correct section and section code to be selected on the TDS portal.
