Advocate C P Chugh

Government has made it mandatory w.e.f 01.06.2013 on buyer of property to deduct TDS @ 1% on payment made after 01.06.2013 if Purchase Consideration of the Property is Rs. 50 Lakh or more. Deductor can pay such TDS by any of the following mode :-

  • Either make the payment online (through e-tax payment option) immediately;
  • Or make the payment subsequently through e-tax payment option (net-banking account) or by visiting any of the authorized Bank branches. However, such bank branches will make e-payment without digitization of any challan. The bank will get the challan details from the online form filled on www.tin-nsdl.com

Once the Payment is made now the dedcuctor / Buyer is required to issue TDS certificate in form 16B to the seller of the Property. Now the question is how to prepare or from where deductor can get such certificate for the purpose of issue to the seller? Answer is deductor can download such certificate from Traces website and issue to the seller.

Buyer of immovable property can download Form 16B after registering on TRACES as Tax Payer.

Procedure to Download TDS certificate in form 16B is as follows :-

1. Login to :

https://www.tdscpc.gov.in/app/tapreg1.xhtml

2. Click on Register New User and you will be asked to provide basic details such as your
  • PAN
  • Date of Birth
  • Last, Middle and First Name and would also be required to further validate details of either tax deducted (option 1) or tax paid by you (option 2).
3. On Validation of details, your account will be created. User ID by default would be your PAN, You would have the option of providing Password of your choice. A email would be automatically generated providing you an activation link with a second code being text on your mobile. Having activated your account, it is now ready to be used. Services currently available are view 26AS statement and download Form 16B in case you are the buyer of immovable Properties.
To download form 16B go to download, click on request for form 16B, validate details and submit your request. After some time the same shall be available under download menu. Click on download, click of available and download and save it your computer.
Print, sign and deliver it to the seller.

    Hello,

    I have raised Form16B request on TRACES link (nriservices.tdscpc.gov.in/nriapp/auth/welcome.xhtml)

    Now, when i go to the Download section and click on “View All Download Request”, then it doesn’t show the FORM 16B. I don’t have request number so i have clicked on “View All Download Request”.

    I have Form 26QB for the same.

    Please let me know how to generate Form 16B??

    Kind Regards,
    Ritesh Talwar

    whenever you as a buyer is paying 1% TDS on behalf of the seller, you have to issue Form 16B to the seller. For all practical purpose, I always ask the client to discuss the entire matter with his/her CA , pay him the needed fees and get him to do the entire stuff. Normally it is around INR 3000 to 4000.

  15. AnandN says:

    I just called the TRACES helpline and they confirmed that 16B cannot be downloaded from IP addresses outside of India at this time (May 2014). The workaround suggested was to have someone in India login with your credentials and submit a request for downloading 16B by clicking on the link (this link for 16B is what is missing when you login from outside India) under the Downloads menu and providing seller PAN, TDS acknowledgement number from form 26QB, etc.

    An alternative to sharing credentials with someone in India is to use proxy servers or something like Hola Unblocker (this worked like a charm for me!).

  16. Vineet Garg says:

    I am permanent resident of India and have PAN as individual. I have been transferred to US by my employer on an assignment for period of two years. I have purchased a property in India before coming to US and made TDS payment on sale consideration given to seller of the property at that time.

    I need to download form 16B and send it to the seller. When I am visiting Traces website for registration, it is redirecting me to register through NRI App page set up by Traces as I am accessing webpage in US.

    Do I need to register through this link of NRI app registration process only. Further, after my return to India will this account opened and registered as NRI account can be used by me to operate or is there any other alternative.

    Thanks

    1. Deen says:

      I have paid TDS on property by filling form 26QB. TRACES is not providing me 16B, even after 3 days of filling 26QB and paying TDS.

  23. Rajeswari says:

    Good morning sir,
    To deduct TDS TAN No. is compulsory.If an individual for eg., salaried person who earns lakhs of money, took an immovable property in 2007 for 10 lakhs and it is now raised to 60lakhs and he is interested to sale that property. e.g., he sells he immediately has to deduct TDS but how he can deduct TDS without having TAN No. and the word property in above para refers whether movable or immovable or both.

  24. Minesh Shah says:

    In case there are 3 sellers in the agreement, then we will have to provide form 16B to all 3 sellers or only to the 1st name in the agreement? If we have to provide three 16B then we have to fill up three 26QB?

  25. Nitin Aggarwal says:

    While going your link tdscpc.gov.in/en/deductor-home.html by clicking the registered new user,it always demand for TAN. As per your articles its never accepts PAN, Now; how can generate form 16B?

  26. ramaraju ramaiah says:

    if Advance payment made by the purchase before 1-6-13 and sale agreement executed after payment was made exceed Rs. 50 lacks then which amount TDS will be deduct and how to payment was made?
