To deduct TDS (Tax Deducted at Source) on property in India (2025), the buyer must follow a specific process outlined under Section 194-IA of the Income Tax Act. TDS applies when the sale value or the stamp duty value of the property exceeds ₹50 lakh. Below is a concise guide based on the most recent and authoritative sources:
TDS is applicable if the sale value or stamp duty value of the property exceeds ₹50 lakh.
The buyer must deduct 1% of the higher of these two values (sale consideration or stamp duty value) before making any payment to the seller. For example, if the sale agreement is for ₹85 lakh but the stamp duty value is ₹90 lakh, TDS must be calculated as 1% of ₹90 lakh.
If the seller does not provide a PAN, TDS will be deducted at 20%.

PAN Collection: Ensure both buyer and seller have valid PAN cards. Collect and verify the seller’s PAN information.
Deduction: At the time of payment (whether lump sum or installment), deduct 1% TDS on the total value at each stage.
Deposit with Government: Deposit the deducted amount using Challan-cum-statement Form 26QB, available through the Income Tax e-filing or TIN-NSDL portal.
The buyer does not need a TAN (Tax Deduction Account Number); PANs of both parties are required.
Payment must be made within 30 days from the end of the month in which TDS was deducted.
TDS Certificate: After payment, download Form 16B from the TRACES portal. Provide this TDS certificate to the seller as official proof of deduction.
