Mr A is liable for tax audit during the previous year then TDS has to be deducted. Otherwise no TDS applicable on this payment.

Got it, here’s a simple explanation:
TDS on Rent Payment by Individuals:
If Mr. A (the payer) is an individual or HUF paying rent for more than Rs. 1,80,000 per year, he must deduct TDS (section 194-IB applies).
TDS rate is 5% on rent paid above that limit.
No TAN is required for individuals or HUFs deducting TDS under section 194-IB. They just need to deduct TDS and deposit it with the government.
Tax audit status of Mr. A doesn’t affect the obligation to deduct TDS on rent. The key condition is the rent amount exceeding Rs. 1,80,000.
In short:
If Mr. A pays rent over Rs. 1,80,000 in a year to Mr. B, he must deduct 5% TDS, deposit it, and file TDS returns. TAN is not mandatory for this specific TDS deduction by individuals.
