19 September 2016 Dear Swarna, 1. co owners need to disclose the 'income from the transaction' which shall be calculated after deducting the selling expenses and the indexed cost of acquisition. so in each person's declaration show the capital gain. Further as pointed out by fellow expert, you'll need to disclose any property purchased from the proceeds if not shown earlier. 2. Value of purchased property is to be taken as per a valuers report as on 01.06.2016. no deduction is allowed under the scheme and tax paid is not refundable.
