27 June 2012 An Assessee owns a residential house property which is in the name of himself alongwith his wife. However, payment for purchase of house was made from own funds of the assessee alone. During PY, he sold the house property and sale consideration is received by him alone. He invested capital gain in new residential house property which is also in the name of himself and his wife. But, payment for the same has been made by himself alone.
He has also taken a loan for house property in the name of himself and his wife.
Questions:
1) In whose hands capital gain on transfer of house will be taxable?
2) What about exemption U/s 54?
3) Who will get deduction U/s 24 for interest on loan?

28 June 2012 1. It is betetr to show the capital gains equally in the return of the husband and the wife. This will also reduce the tax liability.

2. Exemption can be availed by both of them.

3. Deduction will be available to both of them.

26 July 2012 No I disagree with the expert as the wife has never made any investment it is only for the name sake her name is included. If the share % percentage is not fixed the purchase and sale shall always go to the person who has invested and not the the other co-owner who is only on papers.
