30 July 2010 Dear Friend

Total Sale Consideration Rs.10 Lakh

You have to reduce ICOA from Sale consideration.say 1 Lakh . Fathers age < 65 years, Basic exemption limit Rs.1.6 Lakh( Provided ur father have no other Income) Net Capital gain comes to Rs. 7.4 Lakh. Section 54EC you can invest in bonds issued by NHAI and REC within 6 months from the date of transfer. You have to hold that investments without converting it for a period of 3 years.

02 August 2010 Since your father acquired the land from your grandfather hence the property belongs to his HUF.

Create an HUF of your father.

For better tax planning and more income on the investment; consult a good practising CA.

Not only tax savings would be there but you will gain more than FDs or Post Office savings.

You would also be able to use the funds as and when required.
