11 March 2020 Sir Hello
I want to take one advise from experts. Commercial Shop in 1996 but the conveyance deed done in 2015. My question is: Can I take the purchase date as 2015 for indexation purpose? It is sold in 2019. Is it treated as long Term or Short Term. Pl reply asp as I have to deposit advance tax.
Pl advise.
Regards.
