Capital gain


This query is : Resolved 

Quick Summary
When selling a property that was previously let out, determining the correct capital gains calculation is crucial. This discussion explores whether to treat the property as a depreciable asset under Section 50 or calculate it as a long-term capital gain (LTCG). The consensus leans towards treating it as a depreciable asset, resulting in short-term capital gains, especially if depreciation was claimed. It's important to bifurcate the value between land and building, as land may qualify for LTCG if held for over 24 months.
