The coparceners are having inherited rights in the property of HUF therefore how the HUF can sell the property to its members. HUF can alinate the property amongst its members but can not sell it. The transaction will become invalid in the eyes of law. Therefore it will not be advisable to sort for such tax planning.

Will it be the same even if the sale is for a consideration (market value) of course no registration will be possible. But the property will be accounted in the coparceners individual account and return.
