Tds on immovable property more than rs.50 lacs

This query is : Resolved 

23 June 2013 As per new notification u/s 194-1A,If TDS required to be deducted @ 1% on the purchasers of the immovable property(whose consideration value is Rs.50 Lakhs and above)
My doubt it one of my relative has purchased property fr 65 lacs & it's registration is made on 31st May, 2013, it's part paymnt of Rs. 10 lacs is also made before 1st June bt Bank sanciones loan amount(without deducting TDS) on 8th June of balance payment.
In this case purchaser have to pay TDS amounT?

23 June 2013 As the purchaser can show that he has credited the amount to the vendor as on 31-05-2013, he is not required to deduct any TDS.
.

23 June 2013 This is going to be a debatable issue since neither section 194IA nor CBDT has not addressed this issue so far.

23 June 2013 As the transfer has been taken place as on 31-05-2013, it becomes clear that the sum is payable to the vendor.
.
As the sum becomes payable it can be credited to the vendor as on 31-05-2013.
.
The CBDT will not make this settled issue a debatable one as the amount has been credited to the Vendor before 01-06-2013.
.
Further CBDT can not redefine the phrase "whichever is earlier" given in the Act.
.


24 June 2013 Thanks Mr.Bafna Sir & Mr.Chacrapani Sir for your immediate reply.
As per Bafna Sir's point, of CBDT (whichever is earlier) can be put forward by purchaser if any issue arises, as part payment is made before 1st June but Bank has sanctioned balance amount after 1st June.

24 June 2013 part payment of Rs.10 lacs is made by purchaser from it's own sources before 1st June, 2013

26 June 2013 Loan has been taken to discharge of a liability which was pre-existing as on 01-06-2013.
.
The existence of liability as on 31-05-2013 itself shows that the amount has been credited on or before 01-06-2013 and as such the said transaction took place earlier than the payment and such TDS provisions can not be made applicable in this case.
.

22 July 2013 Thanks a lot Mr.Bafna Sir for explanation
sorry for delay in reply
