31 August 2025 I had capital gain when I sold my flat in Aug 2021. I had opened capital gains account in July 2022 and deposited the capital gain ( after considering indexation which was valid that time). However I couldn't utilise this amount in last 3 years to purchase or construct new house. Consequently I need to now show this amount as Deemed capital gain.
In section CG, sub section 10 of ITR 2 when enter "No" against the question " Whether date of limitation/ withdrawal was before 23rd July 2024" system calculated tax at the rate of 12.5% which does not seem correct.
Am I missing anything here. Or since I sold property in Aug 2021, I have to select "Yes" against this question. In that case system calculated LTCG at 20%

04 September 2025 In your case, since the original sale occurred before July 23, 2024, the law is clear:
The correct tax treatment for property sold before July 23, 2024 (like August 2021) is that the long-term capital gain (after indexation) is taxed at 20% when such unused deposit becomes taxable as deemed capital gain. So, select 'yes' to the question.
