Dear Ajay,
The basis requirement for treating a group of persons (tax definition), are as under:
(i) Two or more persons;
(ii) Voluntary combinations;
(iii) A common purpose or common action with object to produce profit or gains.
However, the object to produce profit or gains is no longer a requirement due to the explanation inserted in clause (31) to section 2 of the Act with effect from April 1, 2002, provides that an association of persons will be deemed to be a person whether or not it is formed with the object of deriving income.
So, can the AO treat you as an AOP? Possibly yes.
The best way out should be to contest all the notices sent by AO, file separate returns offering individual's share of capital gains to tax/ claim exemption provided under the act.
