20 February 2017 Section 45(2) talks about computation of capital gain in the case of conversion of capital asset into stock in trade. The Section came into effect from AY 1985-86 by way of amendment in Section 45 by Taxation Laws (Amendment) Act, 1984 to nullify the effect of Apex Court Judgement in the case of CIT v. Bai Shirinbai K. Kooka [1962] 46 ITR 86.
