Asked 6 years ago in Property Tax

Hi,

 

It is ok to deduct TDS in husband's name only if husband is going to show the entire capital gain in his account.

 

I dint understand your follow-up question.

Hi,

 

Even if you have deducted the TDS in both husband and wife's name, it is ok. As long as total 1% TDS has been deducted, there is no serious issue.

That's okay if buyer has deducted TDS on both husband and wife.

Because that is what is correct as it is in both husband and wife's name.

Did husband file any balance sheet to income tax department and any which ways even if he has you will have to show capital gain income in both husband and wife return as purchase deed is made in both name.

Hope you find the information helpful if you do please rate it 5 and provide your valuable feedback for my improvement.

Thank you

It is fine if the buyer has deducted TDS in the name of both husband and wife. Wife has to file ITR and transfer TDS to husband because entire capital gain income is taxable in the hands of the husband only.

Hello,

 

Actually, the buyer was required to deduct in both husband's and wife's PAN.

If the property is owned by both as joint owners, capital gain liability is also on both. If the TDS has been deducted in both PANs, no problem.

 

I hope this answer satisfies your requirement.

your query is not clear, whether TDS has been deducted on both's PAN or only husband's PAN.

Anyways, mentioning both scenarios,

If the TDS has been deducted in only husband's PAN and capital gain liability is own both(being joint owner), then husband needs to transfer proportionate TDS to wife.

If the TDS has been deducted in both PANs and the property is owned by both as joint owners, capital gain liability is also on both, no problem.

Dear Sir,

 

Hope you are doing well !!

 

Ideally, it should have been deducted from both of your PANs.
