28 July 2013 Sir ,If the Sale deed is excecuted and one clause is incorporated that the possession of property will be given after 2 month i.e. on so on so date and balance 20% of sales will be given by buyer to seller on this date.
So the date of handing over possession in writing will be considered transfer date (date of sale) for calculating capital gain.
