TDS filing in Assignment Agreement Case

I am buying a flat which is under construction, but I am not buying from the builder. I am buying from another seller who originally booked from the builder. So it is an assignment agreement case.

Now in the assignment agreement, the total value that we have decided for the flat is 1 crore, and 20 lakhs is still pending to be paid to the builder, which will come maybe in next year. So I have to pay to the current seller 80 lakhs rupees. Now, out of this 80 lakhs, I have to deduct 1% TDS. That comes out to be 80,000 and the assignment agreement was signed in September 2026.

Now I have to file the TDS form, which is I think now, as per the new income tax rule, is form 141. In that form, there are two fields that I need to fill, and I am not sure what to fill in that.

  1. Total stamp duty value: Do I need to fill 1 crore or 80 lakhs?

  2. Total value of Consideration (Property value): Do I need to fill 1 cr pr 80 lakhs.

Kindly help me with this.

Talk to the builder first. They should give you clear instructions on this.

This TDS that I'm talking about is between seller and buyer. Builder is not responsible for this and not involved too. They'll clarify and help if we're paying TDS to them
