The rent constituent payments are made for leases, tenancies, sub-leases, or other arrangements of properties such as land with factory, building with factory, land, plant, machinery, or furniture and fittings.
The government has taken a rental income under the umbrella of TDS provisions through sections 194I, 194IB, and 194IC.
Section 194IC TDS has been recently introduced with the objective to bring rent under the scope of joint development agreements. So, any person who is paying a resident a consideration under a joint development agreement needs to deduct TDS under Section 194 IC. It is an agreement with the owner of the asset who agrees to let another person build a real estate project on such assets in return for the share or payment that was made in cash.
The rate of tax deduction is 10%, and if the PAN of the receiver is not available, then the rate will be 20%. The time of deducting tax is earlier than the credit of income to the account of the payee or actual payment. Also, there is no threshold limit under this section.
The joint development agreement is a registered contract with a property owner and a promoter to construct the new projects on the landowner's property. Based on this agreement, the promoter carries out the legal construction work.
Further, the owner will give the land, and under this agreement, the owner will be paid back in cash or in the form of shares in the property.
Mentioned below are the rates for tax deduction with Section 194IC:
The challan-cum-statement, or Form 26 QC, is the payment method allowed by Section 194IC. In order to demonstrate that the tenant has deposited tax, the tenant must also furnish Form 16C.
Form 16C is also a TDS certificate. Payments can be made without a TAN (Tax Deduction Account Number).
