Dear Experts
please advise
june 2024 i bought a property, seller was NRI so i cut TDS @20.8% and deposited challan and shared to seller
july my CA filed for TDS return for Q1
post that i missed and my CA missed and my seller also missed that whether TDS deducted is reflecting in his 26as and whether my return filed is accepted in CPC
now all of sudden in march 2025, my seller asked for for 16a ie TDS certificate
Upon checking by my CA, the old return is wiped from income tax
in apr 2025, he refiled TDS return and same accepted at CPC, logged in traces, got form 16a also and given to seller
Now major point here is that now CA has filed in apr 25, so date is considered as Q4
in form 16a , challan deposit dates are correct, but on top it telling for Q4 submission
Also this TDS is reflecting is seller 26as
But now seller is asking that he will not accept this form 16a and new one with Q1 has to be shared
Whats the provision here
as after speaking to my CA, if i go for Q1, there is a penalty
is there a challenge at seller end in his TDS
As far as i know TDS return may be late, but his TDS refund will not impact
Please suggest
