    Hi,

    Me and my brother have entered into an agreement to sale on Dec 12, 2013 and had paid the vendor some token advance. Now we have fixed our registration date as Feb 24, 2014 where the sale deed would also be entered. In form 26QB, when I key the agreement date as Feb 24, 2014 and the payment to vendor date also as Feb 24, 2014 it doesn’t accept saying the date cannot be future date.
    Now my query is this- Should I wait till Feb 24th morning and make the remittance and then go for registration, since the sub-registrar will not accept to register unless we show the TDS payment challan. Or should I key the date of agreement and date of payment to vendor as Dec 12, 2013 and make the TDS dating the current date.
    Appreciate if you could help me on this.
    Thanks,
    Hitesh

    This is an very important matter. But when it does notified in the official gazettee is still not known as per this write up. Though the Notification is issued on 31st May 2013 it is now July 2013 so atleast please let us know when it is published in the Official Gazettee, so that the implementation is fool/full proof. Govt. bring in new laws and rules withut the government department having full knowledge of it. In a Brand Equity the whole Logo is changed over night to know the new Logo and Design but such an corporate ethics and speed is required in the Govt. Matter also.
