06 December 2010 I had purchased a flat in Jan 2007 for Rs 20 lacs and now in Dec 2010 I am selling it for Rs 40 lacs. My annual salary is Rs 1.80 lacs.Can you tell me the exact tax to be paid by me if I do not want to repurchase a flat again and want to use the entire amount to start a business.And is the tax calculated by you need only be paid by Jul 2011 when I am filing my ITR or before that. If so than by what date.

06 December 2010 Hi Lalit,

In your case, it will be Long-term capital gain.
Capital gain will be 12,60,116/-
You have to pay tax of 2,52,024/-
You have to pay tax by December 15th if you are going to sell before that date.
Otherwise, you can pay on March 15.

06 December 2010 Hi buddy, using mobile, so not feasible for me to calculate tax.. But will tell u how to do. A. LONG TERM CAPITAL GAIN TAX : ur long term capital gain is Rs. 20 lacs, but taxable amount will be 2000000x711/519 (cost of inflations for year 06-07 & 10-11).... Then such amount will be charged @ 20%... B. NORMAL TAX : ur normal tax will be on Rs. 20000 @ 10%.... C. Add both above amounts, and on them add edu. cess @ 2% & higher edu cess @ 1%.... D.
