TDS on rent payment, property sale: Budget hikes penalty on delay in TDS certificate to Rs 500 per day
A buyer of immovable property is required to deduct tax at the rate of 1% of the sale value and furnish the challan-cum-statement in Form No. 26QB to deposit the TDS amount with the government. From the due date of depositing the TDS amount, he/she is required to issue a TDS certificate i.e., Form 16B within 15 days. If the TDS certificate is not issued within 15 days, then he/she will be liable to pay a penalty of Rs 500 per day from FY 2022-23 onwards, as per the proposals.
