One of my client's mother had an ancestoral property which was sold in Dec 2010 and the receipt from this sale was shared equally by my client and her sister and this amt was deposited to their bank account directly. I wanted to know how my client have to file the return and under which Head of income can she show the amt??

Its Long Term Capital Gain, and would be taxed after taking cost of indexation on fair value after 1981 deducted from sale proceeds.

if the property of of theoir mother and the receips have been tranferred to the accounts of client and sister,i think the capital gain will be filed in your client's mother's return ...

yup sunshine is ryt...capital gain has to be filed in mother's return..
the sum recieved by your client wud be taxable if he/she has recieved it directly from the purchaser..
but if ur clients mother has transferred the amount it can be treated as gift and wud not be taxable...

funny that property sale proceeds are divided in bro and sis, but the query posting person did not bothered to mention that mother is alive or not
this is the unique beauty in discussion seen on CCI only, where the members fight without any issue on half query itself

if mother is alive then how did the bro and sis shared the sale proceeds? its the property of mother and only she can sale it, so the amount goes to her only............................
also the amount gone to bank directly of bro and sis, despite of mother alive?

The prob here is whether the mother will have to file the return showing LTCG on full value of the consideration as the property is in her name(even though ancestoral property)????
Also, my client don't have any taxable income and whether she has to file the return showing this Income transferred by the mother as a gift or whether its enough for the mother to file the return???

yes the full ltcg will be taxable in the hands of mother...if its ancestral property then take the value of 1981 fr indexation pupose....no taxes on client or sister coz gift to a relative is exempt...u/s 56(2)
