A client is seeking to avoid TDS deduction on monthly rent payments exceeding Rs. 42,000. The query explores the possibility of submitting declarations under Sections 206AB and 206CCA for non-deduction, similar to provisions for transporters and Section 194Q. It is suggested that the landlord apply for a lower or nil TDS deduction certificate under Section 197 from their Jurisdictional Income Tax Officer.

Section 197 allows taxpayers to apply for a certificate that permits the deduction of tax at a lower rate or even at nil rate on their income. Ask the landlord to get the certificate from his Jurisdictional ITO.
