27 March 2010 Hi Sunil,

the cost of the property sold is 40/5*2 = 16 Lacs

The sales consideration is 45 lacs

The period of Holding is important to determine LTCG or STCG.

If the Period of Holding is more then years , then cost is to be indexed as follows :

Cost * Indexation value of year in which it is sold /Indexation value of year in which it is purchased or constructed

Then LTCG will be = sales consideration - indexed cost


In case of LTCG , u can claim the benefit u/s 54F for avoiding tax payment .

If STCG,

STCG = Sales consideration - cost

I hope the above clarify the provision.







27 March 2010 The year of holding shd be more then 3 year to make it LTCG

27 March 2010 agree with expert

27 March 2010 thanks
