Dear all cci friends,

There was a sale transaction of GOLD by an assessee to his friend at the end of the february month 2018.

my doubts are

1) how to take purchase cost of this gold - as the gold was received from his ancestors on various occassions?

2) if i have to take market value as on 1.4.2000 for this gold as a pirchase cost - then where i will get those values..

3) after calculating, if it results in long term capital gain he is interested to invest in bonds to save tax liability (he is NRI - IS nri can purchase bonds). if he can purchase then how to approach to buy n if he cannot purchase then is there any alternative to save tax liability.
