kindly guide me...

08 June 2012 1. The sale of property is taxable under the head Income from Capital Gain.
2. Tax will @ 20% on capital gain.
3. Capital gain shall be computed as under:

Sale Consideration
Less: Expenses on transfer
Less: Cost of acquisition

If the asset is a long term capital asset, then Indexed cost of acquisition shall be reduced to arrive at the capital gain.

There is NO TDS applicable in this case.
