an under construction property prior to 1st June 2013 but has to
make balance payment after June 1st 2013.

authorities made hassle free tax deposition by individual on tax on property. The
buyer will be able to generate the TDS certificate from I-T department’s website
and provide to seller. The seller would also able to see the TDS credit in
