18 March 2026 For a cancelled property transaction, the TDS deposited under Section 194-IA can be fully refunded. The buyer can claim this refund directly through the TRACES portal by submitting a "Request for Refund" and providing the cancellation deed and a No Objection Certificate (NOC) from the seller to the Jurisdictional Assessing Officer. Alternatively, if the seller is cooperative, the easiest practical method is for the seller to claim the TDS as a refund while filing their Income Tax Return (ITR) and subsequently reimburse the buyer.

Can I still claim the TDS credit even though the income from the property sale was not received due to cancellation of the deal?
