12 February 2019 Hi ,

I am planning to purchase residential flat on resale basis

1 - Can i claim Stamp Duty & Registration Charges as deduction from income under income tax act in FY in which it is paid.


2- In future when i sell this residential property , can i claim stamp duty & registration charges as part of cost of acquisition , while calculating capital gains in that FY




12 February 2019 Yes stamp duty can be claimed under 80C maximum Rs.150000/-
Yes long term gain you can claim as cost of AQUISITION

13 February 2019 Sir ,
one small query , in above mentioned scenario , will it not amount to double benefit of same amount ( once as deduction from income & again as cost of acquisition in calculation of capital gains)

please guide whether my understanding is correct
