Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the rules for deducting Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) on the sale of immovable property by a Non-Resident Indian (NRI). The key point is that TDS should be deducted and paid in the name of the individual who legally owns the property title, even if the sale proceeds are later distributed among family members. The example highlights that if a lady owns the property, TDS is applicable to her, regardless of how she splits the funds with her son and daughter.

In case seller is lady and registry of the title will be done that lady then full tax need to be deducted in hand of lady, the partition of money in her children account is mere process of distribution of fund but for tds purpose and capital gain it is in hand of person who owned the title.
The tds is deducted in the hand of the person who sold it
