How will transactions of more than one buyer/seller be filed in Form 26QB – TDS on immovable property?

1)How many Form no: 26 QB should be filled online if Immovable Property is purchased by two buyers from two sellers i.e. one sale deed / agreement is in the name of two buyers from two sellers,

2) Should TDS be paid 25 % wise e.g., if property of Rs 60 lakhs is purchased then should TDS be 25%wise i.e. four Form no 26 QB should be filled & TDS be paid 25%wise?

Ans: Earlier there was confusion on this issue. However, this issue has now been clarified by Income Tax Department. In case of multiple sellers, Form 26QB needs to be filed for each seller separately. Similarly, in case of multiple buyers, each needs to issue Form 26QB separately.

Relevant FAQ on NSDL site is reproduced as under:

How will transactions of joint parties (more than one buyer/seller) be filed in Form 26QB?

Online statement cum Challan Form/ Form 26QB is to be filled in by each buyer for unique buyer-seller combination for respective share. E.g. in case of one buyer and two sellers, two forms have to be filled in and for two buyers and two seller, four forms have to be filled in for respective property shares.

    Everytime when the government departments, especially in the tax related matters, the common man is forced to undergo multiple thoughts and the person who has advised or made the rule will not think of consequences. The person who made the rule will ALWAYS be absconding and leave the matter open-ended.

    I have deposited Rs 65000 through a single challan instead of Rs 32500 for each seller.

    I have submitted correction request on traces website where I corrected the amount for one seller but it doesn’t have any option to split the amount of the challan between 2 buyers and 2 sellers.

    Kindly guide me how can it be corrected.

    What is the total consideration for property to be entered in form 26QB?
    a) The Agreement value
    b) Your share in property
    c) Total Consideration paid/payable by you and not the other buyers

    In what ratio are you supposed to pay TDS in case ownership ratio is not mentioned in the agreement?
    a) Completely by first owner
    b) Equally
    c) In the ratio consideration is paid

    Hi,

    I have bought my apartment in joint ownership with my father, but all payments are made by me. We added his name in case of any urgent signs needed when I am not around (I am not in India).

    My question is, can I pay TDS all through my account? The language seems to suggest that the person responsible for paying is the one who has to cut the TDS.

    “Any person, being a transferee, responsible for paying …. to a resident transferor …”

    Thanks for your help in advance.

    If there are 2 buyers(hub and wife) and 1 seller and i split and make a delayed TDS payment in 50:50 proportion using 2 challans..
    1,how these 2 buyers are linked in the system as they share the same property . there is only one field in form26QB which just asks whether there are more buyers . other than that i do not see any way to track if 2 or more buyers are sharing the same property …

    2, since there are 2 TDS paid using 2 different challans on the same day as there are 2 buyers and lets assume the delay is 10 days will each buyer have to pay a late fee of 200×10 = 2000 ? will each buyer get a notice to pay 2000 each in this scenario. if so multiple buyers will double or triple the penalty for the same TDS amount.

      I bought a property, say for example 1 cr and till now paid 70% of the property. Say 70 lakh as its an under construction apartment.
      Me and my wide are the joint owners for this property, so far I paid 1% TDS (that is 70,000) on time but only filled one 26QB form.
      I understand this that I should have filled two seperate 26QB and paid 35,000 rs for both the owners (me and my wife).
      But now since that mistake is done my question is what should I do to correct this ?
      Also, for the remaining 30%, I am planning to file two separate 26QB for me and my wife, but since 70% will have just one 26QB and remaing 30% will would be by both me and my wife, would that be an issue later ?
      Please suggest.
      Thanks

    The Assessee purchased property in joint name with his spouse for sale consideration of Rs. 55.00 lacs and sellers were also two persons jointly. TDS Liability u/s 194 IA (Rs. 55000/-) was paid. But assessee, inadvertently, deposited TDS amount with details of one seller only. Technically speaking, 26QB will be required with details of both sellers and both buyers, resulting in more than one challan/ return.
    Department has issued a notice in the matter that one of buyer has not furnished details as to Form 26QB and it will attract penal provisions.
    There are no such cases as to answer this issue. There is no loss to revenue. Should we approach jurisdictional assessing office for correction or some other measures are available under four corners of law.

    TDS should deducted only if property value is more than 50 lakhs. If seller is 5 person and buyer is 1 person then he is buying 5 property so each seller is selling for 10 lakhs only. My question is whether TDS should be deducted for 10 lacs?

      hello friends
      I am also facing Same problem. As per per my opinion if one purchaser and seller are 4 then we have to file four 26QB form with respective share of amount in property.

      e.g. I Purchased a property of Rs. 70,00,000 from three vendor. and make payment to each vendor 35,00,000 and 17,50,000 and 17,50,000 then I will file three 26QB for each vendor with their PAN, TDS deducted on them with their respective amount.
      I think I will deduct TDS 35000 and 17500 and 17500 respectively. then file Form 26QB.

      Am I Right. Please comment

    What is the answer for the 2nd part of the question? i.e. if 4 forms are to be filled, then the TDS amount that was deducted should be paid 25% for each form?

    For e.g. if Sale consideration = Rs. 6000000/- then TDS deducted = Rs. 60000/-. Now if there are 2 sellers and 2 buyers then 4 forms should be filled. However how much payment should be made against each form? Should it be 25% i.e. 15000/- for each form in this example?

    Please confirm.

      Hi

      Did you get a response? 2 buyer and 2 seller. So property value in each form should be 0.25% correct?
