31 December 2024 I am Salaried individual and sold one property (house) during 2024 and made brokerage payment of 2.5 Lac to agent. As per 194H I understood that Individuals or HUF don't required deduct TDS for such transaction.

I am bit confused as various portal interprets this section differently.

What exactly is the requirement for Individual not having any income other than Salary

In all above cases, the cost of acquisition of the asset shall be the cost for which the previous owner of the property acquired it.
Where the cost for which the previous owner acquired the property cannot be ascertained, the cost of acquisition to the previous owner means the Fair Market Value on the date on which the capital asset became the property of the previous owner.

All relevant documents that reflect the purchase price and additional costs incurred during acquisition. This includes:
