As per Finance Bill of 2013, Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) is applicable on sale
of immoveable property wherein the sale consideration of the property exceeds or
is equal to INR 5,000,000 (INR 5 million). Sec 194 IA of the Income Tax Act, 1961
states that for all transactions with effect from 1 June 2013, Tax @ 1% should be
deducted by the purchaser of the property at the time of making payment of sale
consideration. Tax so deducted should be deposited to the Government Account through
any of the authorized bank branches. Facility for furnishing information regarding
the transaction of sale of immoveable property and payment of TDS thereof can be

Points to be remembered by the Purchaser of the Property:
Deduct tax @ 1% from the sale consideration.
Collect the PAN of the seller and verify the same with the original PAN card. PAN
of the seller as well as the purchaser should be mandatorily furnished in an online
form for furnishing information regarding the sale transaction. Do not commit any
error in quoting the PAN or other details in an online form as there is no online
mechanism for rectification of errors. For the purpose of rectification you are
required to contact Income Tax Department of India.
