54f

This query is : Resolved 

14 June 2019 My friend is selling his residential property in village for Rs 20 Lacs and intends to purchase a house in urban area Rs 18 Lacs on NOTARY. The seller is asking the money in CASH only. My questions are :
(1) Would he be able to claim exemption U/s 54F (As it is a notary and not a registry)
(2) what would be the implications to him as he is withdrawing cash from his bank account and paying in cash.

Kindly suggest urgently as he wants to close the deal early.

Thanks & Regards

14 June 2019 Such deals are not advised.
1 54 exemption not available as there is no registered sale.
2 100% penalty leviable under section 269ST for cash payment.

15 June 2019 Thanks a lot Sir for the timely and valuable advice.
