Hi, need to know how one should disclose capital gains in the ITR form in the following scenario:
Total sales consideration - 90L Received 89 L in December 2018 (i.e. AY 2019-20) Sale agreement executed in June 2019 (i.e. AY 2020-21) + Final Payment 1 L received on which TDS @ 1% is deducted.
In which year, do I show the sale? Also, in case the sale is reported in AY 2019-20, how do I claim the TDS credit in the next year (AY 2020-21) because since technically in that year I will be offering no capital gains income.

You need to offer the Capital Gain in the year you executed the sale deed i.e. June 2019 as the ownership will be transferred on that day. The amount received in December 2018 should be treated as advance against the property.
