Why NRIs Selling In Pune Lose Lakhs Without This

Buyers of NRI-owned property in Pune must deduct TDS at rates up to 20–30% of the sale value by default — often far more than the seller's actual tax liability.

Pune is a major IT and automobile hub where a large number of NRIs hold apartments bought during the 2000s–2010s real-estate boom. SVT & Associates regularly files Section 197 applications for NRI clients selling property in Pune and can coordinate with the relevant Assessing Officer's jurisdiction on your behalf.

Typically 7–15 working days depending on documentation readiness and Income Tax Department processing timelines.

The application should ideally be filed before the transaction. Once TDS is deducted at the higher rate, the excess can only be recovered via refund — which takes 12–18 months.

PAN, passport, sale agreement (or draft), purchase deed, prior tax records and NRO bank details. We share a complete checklist on enquiry.

Both are issued under Section 197. A Lower TDS Certificate reduces the deduction rate to match your actual tax liability; a Nil TDS Certificate applies when your computed tax liability is effectively zero.
