2. As per Govt. notification, when a buyer buys immovable property (i.e. a building or part of a building or any land other than agricultural land) costing more than Rs.50 lakhs, he has to deduct TDS when he pays to the seller. This has been laid down in Section 194-1A of the Income Tax Act.

4.Revision or rate of delay Charges.

As per IRWO Rules delay charges are payable by member in case of delay in payment of installment by more than 7 days from the due date. Rates of delay charges are indicated in the project brochure. Keeping in view the rate of interest charged by banks on housing loan, rate of delay charges was revised @ 9.50% p.a. from 1-4-2018 onwards.

Members are aware that as per IRWO Rules, in case of delay in payment of two consecutive installments, DUs allotted to them are liable to be cancelled, after issue of notice for 60 days followed by 30 days. However, if a member makes a request for extension of date of deposit of installment, to enable them to arrange funds, then the date of deposit of installment is extended considering merit of the case. However, this is subject to payment of delay charges from the due date of deposit of installment upto the actual date of deposit.

It has now been decided if the allottee do not pay installment within 6 months from the due date of deposit of installments, whatsoever the reason may be, he will be liable to pay delay charges @ 9.50% p.a. alongwith penal charges @ 3% p.a. from the due date of deposit upto actual date of deposit. However, this will be without prejudice to cancel DU allotted to allottee on account of non-payment of installments. This comes in force with immediate effect.
