How long does it take to obtain a lower TDS certificate?

Processing typically takes 2-6 weeks depending on documentation completeness and authority workload. Applications should be submitted well in advance of property transactions to avoid delays and ensure timely certificate availability.

What happens if TDS is not deducted on property sale?
