I would like to make you happy by suggesting you to refer section 2(47)(i) and Section 2(47)(v) respectively.
.
If the flat is in co-operative society, you may please refer Section 2(47)(vi) also.

Section 2(47)(i) of Income Tax entails even a contract i.e., allotment letter to sale of immovable property (in this case a flat) entered between the builder and buyer constitutes as transfer. Moreover, buyer on the basis of 'Allotment letter' of the property obtains loan from the bank.
If that being the case, why not the allotment letter (basically it is agreement/contract between builder and buyer to deliver the flat at a particular date for a consideration) cannot be taken as transfer for determination of long/short term capital asset?

Allotment Agreement shows that the purchaser has got the right to purchase. Right to purchase expires when the flat is finally allotted to him by possession or by executing registered document.
.
I can not say that I have right to Purchase
Flat No 505, specifically when the property has already been registered in my name.
.
The asset which has been purchased by me in whatever form, its nomenclature depends upon its current format at the time of sale.
