Where the seller is a non-resident, the buyer deducts TDS under Section 393(2) of the Income-tax Act, 2025 (earlier Section 195) and generally needs a TAN. From 1 October 2026 a resident individual or HUF buyer can instead deduct and report with PAN in Form 141 (G.S.R. 830(E), 22 September 2026); NRI, company, firm and LLP buyers still need a TAN. Buying from a resident seller needs no TAN: the 1% TDS is paid with PAN through Form 141 (earlier Form 26QB).
If you are a foreign company employing an Indian resident, you must deduct TDS — and need a TAN.
Rent paid to a non-resident landlord is subject to TDS under Section 393(2) (earlier Section 195), with no ₹50,000 threshold, and the tenant needs a TAN. Rent paid by an individual tenant to a resident landlord falls under the 2% PAN-based rule and needs no TAN.
For payments abroad we coordinate Form 145 and the CA certificate in Form 146 (earlier Form 15CA / 15CB), which certifies the tax treatment and TDS on the remittance.
