When a husband and wife jointly purchase a property, but the husband pays the full consideration, questions arise about TDS deduction and filing. While the husband made the payment, Section 194-IA states both purchasers are liable for deducting tax. Therefore, the husband is responsible for deducting TDS and filing Form 26QB for the entire transaction.
