Agreement of sale is a mere conditional promise of sale if conditions (payment) is fulfilled. Actual sale happens only after the condition of sale is fulfilled, i.e. payment is made. Thus 1st sep. is the date on which sale is effected. This date should be taken for determining whether it is long term or short term.

Date of agreement, date of payment or date of possession does not count. Whether any Power of Attorney is executed along with possession. If so that date has to be taken as date of transfer. Otherwise, date of registration of sale deed will alone canbe taken as date of transfer.
