Sir

As per section 45 (1) Any profits or gains arising from the transfer of a capital asset effected in the previous year shall, save as otherwise provided in sections 54, 54B, 54D, 54E, 54EA, 54EB, 54F , 54G and 54H, be chargeable to income-tax under the head "Capital gains", and shall be deemed to be the income of the previous year in which the transfer took place.

Capital gains from property received by gift or will are calculated based on the cost of acquisition by the previous owner, as per Section 49(1) of the Income Tax Act.

Calculation of capital gain:

Capital Gains = (Sale Price - Cost of Transfer - Indexed cost of acquisition - Indexed Cost of improvement) x Applicable Short Term/Long Term Capital Gains Tax rate.

Sir

Dear Experts,

For our Gratuity the plan assets is LIC. So we make contributions every year and the amount is reduced from our Gratuity provision in Books. Now, One employee transferred from Group company to our company. So the gratuity of his is transferred to our LIC Account. Now, the LIC Fund statement shows the premium received is Rs 39 lacs paid by us from our bank account. And the gratuity of the employee Rs 2 lacs is also shown as premium received in LIC fund statement. The issue is for the 39 lacs paid, we can pass entry as

Gratuity provision A/c Dr Rs 39 lacs
To Bank Rs 39 lacs

But for the employee's gratuity amount Rs 2 lacs what entry should I pass in books. The Actuarial Valuation report shows that the total employer contribution is Rs 41 Lacs (Rs 39+Rs 2 lacs).

I will debit Gratuity provision with Rs 2 lacs but what ledger should corresponding credit carry. Our company follows Accounting Standards.
