My client has bought an underconstruction immovable property in April 2009. He has registered the property by paying requisite Stamp Duty in April 2009.
Payment for the flat was made subsequently in installments as per the progress of the constuction.
He got the possession of flat in Jan 2013 and wishes to sell it now ie in May 2013.
will this be considered as Long Term Capital Gain or Short term Cap gain for taxation purpose??
Can the Registration date in this case be considered as Date of Acquisition even though full payment of the property is not made nor has possession been taken on registration as the property was still under construction??
Pls Advice

Does the firm that an articled assistant goes to has got anything to do with standing a better chance at the final job interview?
Like,does the one who worked at a big four or the one with industrial training stand a better chance at the interview than the one who went to a small firm,other things remaining constant?
And is a big firm better to work at than a small one apart from the fact that they pay you more and lets you specialize on something?
Also isn't specializing on a particular thing limiting the exposure and the variety of work that one gets working with a small firm?

Thanks a lot in advance!

My articleship started in August 2011, by January 2012, I got registered for M.com through IGNOU, but forgot to fill out Form 112 because I had merely registered for the correspondence course, I actually had no intention of giving the exams till my Ca was done. Now I feel that if I am registered, I must not delay the attempt of M.com..What should I write in the condonation letter? Also, will my additional course result in delay of grant of membership?
