TDS on Property Purchased above 50lakh

Dear Experts

One of my friend entered into a property transaction approximately three years ago when the property was still under construction. The total consideration for the property was Rs. 57 lakh and the property was purchased jointly by his wife.

The payment was made in installments, starting from April 2023, with the final payment made in May 2025. However, the registration deed for the property was executed in May 2026.

My question is whether Form 26QB is required to be filed in this case, Rs. 40 lakh payments already made before october 2024 and balance payment in May 2025. 

Pls suggest, thanks

Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the requirement for filing Form 26QB when purchasing property above £50 lakh, especially for joint buyers. It explains that for payments made on or after 1 October 2024, the total consideration from all buyers is considered, meaning TDS is applicable even if individual shares are below the threshold. For payments made before this date, the rules might differ, and it's advised to check the stamp duty value as TDS is calculated on the higher of the price or stamp duty value. Late filings incur interest and penalties under Sections 201(1A) and 234E.

Form 26QB is mandatory for this Rs. 57 lakh property transaction, requiring separate filings by both husband and wife for their respective co-ownership shares on each installment paid between April 2023 and May 2025. Because the filings are delayed beyond the due dates, applicable interest under Section 201(1A) and late fees under Section 234E must be paid while depositing the TDS and filing the pending forms on the Income Tax portal.
