Capital gain tax in case of joint owners of a property


This query is : Resolved 

(Querist)
04 June 2013 If two people, A and B, get a property registered under both of their names but A makes the entire payment for that property from his bank account and B promises to pay him his part of the money later on. However, later on B backs out and refuses to make his part of the payment. If A later on sells the property, then what will be the status of B? Will he be liable to pay any capital gain tax or only A will be liable to pay the capital gain tax? Kindly mention the case law in regard with this query, if any.

04 June 2013 status of B is decided as per registered conveyance deed.

both A & B will be entitled to equal share in sale proceeds and capital gain tax worked out accordingly.

thanks!!
