12 July 2007 The advance tax would be payable for the installment falling due on 15.03 or 31.03 as and when the Capital Gains arise. There would be no interest payable for the advance tax not paid in the other past installments. The capital gains are computed as per each quarter so as to derive the liability for advance tax. However, the advance tax is payable and it shall not be right if the self assessment tax is simply paid at the time of filing of the return of income. The interest u/s.234 shall be payable in that case.
