Quick Summary
This discussion addresses a query regarding a TDS refund for a client who incurred a long-term capital loss when selling a house property. Despite the buyer deducting 1% TDS, the client's Income Tax Return (ITR) shows a mismatch in the TDS paid column compared to the 26AS statement. The advice suggests that even with a capital loss, TDS can be deducted, and the taxpayer should file their ITR declaring the loss. The tax department will then verify the claim and process the refund for any excess TDS deducted.

File rectification request u/s. 154 IT act.

Sir 26AS payment figure is sale value where 1% tds deducted, but in ITR ltcg income schedule loss I declared, I checked its income mismatching so pls guide me what I have to do?

Even if for loss on the sale of property TDS would be deducted by purchaser. You can file ITR and declare the loss. Department will check its authenticity, and refund the excess tax deducted, if any.

Refund of excess TDS for a seller with LTCG:
• If the buyer deducted 1% TDS under 194-IA on a property sale (over Rs 50 lakh), and your actual tax on LTCG (after exemptions like Sec 54) is lower, claim a refund by filing your ITR. Claim the TDS in Schedule TDS (it's in 26AS under 194-IA).
• The refund is processed after the ITR is processed, with interest under 244A.
