Query is that

1. Can he repay housing loan from the consideration likely received and get the long term capital gain tax exemption agisnt housing loan repayment? what is rule position in this regard.


kindly advise me.


06 April 2015 Repayment of loan is not an expense in connection with the transfer. Therefore, the amount remitted to close housing loan cannot be deducted for determining capital gain tax.

06 April 2015 I agree with CA B. Chakrapani Warrier.
