C Gain Tax

This query is : Resolved

Quick Summary

This discussion clarifies whether interior, furnishing, and electronics costs incurred in 2016 can be added to the original purchase price of a flat when calculating capital gains tax. While full contractor VAT bills are ideal, payments made via cheque can be partially considered as part of the property's cost base, with or without indexation benefits.

03 September 2024 Sir,
Sorry for the delay. I am not having the required contractor's VAT paid bills but, some cheques are issued for part payments made but not for the full amount of the cost I incurred.
