TDS deposit deadline for sale of property

For your property purchase on February 28, 2026, the TDS must be deposited via Form 26QB by March 30, 2026, and the TDS certificate (Form 16B) must be issued to the seller by April 14, 2026.

Compliance is key in high-value property transactions. Under Section 194-IA, the buyer must deposit the 1% TDS using Form 26QB within 30 days from the end of the month in which the deduction was made. Missing this deadline can trigger a late fee of ₹200 per day. The team at Compliance Doctor can help you navigate these timelines and ensure your Form 16B is issued correctly to avoid any legal friction
