selling of membership has considered to be capital gain in many instances. BSE membership. Housing Society membership. If the member is allowed to sell membership, then it is liable for capital gain. If the club sells the membership, it is not liable for capital gain.

for bse membership many case laws are available. But for club membership no such specific caselaw. It can be argued on the basis of "personal effect" if the the value is moderately reasonable. The reasonableness will differ from case to case.
