18 December 2011 On conversion of capital asset into stock in trade it will amount to transfer and CG needs to be calculated.

The sale consideration will be the FMV vlaue of the prperty and indexed cost acq needs to be deducted to arrive at the CG.

Again when the converted stock in trade will be sold then any income will be taxable under the head Business and profession.(The difference between the Selling price and the sale proceeds)
