Dear Experts,
Property purchased in 2006 by assessee is now trfd as gift to his 2 sons. Will this gift result in capital gains if trfd to 2 sons without consideration?
Also when the son sells the property within 1 year , then the same will be treated as short term or long term?
What will be the cost for him for calculating capital gains? zero or cost to previous owner? If cost to previous owner , then cost of improvements done will also be considered?

1. no tax on gift here.
2. the transaction would still be considered LTCG
3. cost of the previous owner including improvements, if any.
