I have a case where in Mr. Suresh had purchased a residential plot in 1985 for 1 lakh, he has constructed house in the year 2006 investing 20 lakhs, now due to some reasons he has sold his residential house for 75 lakhs in may 2019.
1. How can Mr.Suresh invest this amount to avoid tax or to avail exemption under LTCG.
2. Mr.Suresh has two sons, can he gift that amount to them ? will tax be applicable to their sons ?
3. Can Mr. Suresh purchase 2 residential plots ( 1 in his name and 1 in his wife’s name) for that amount in which house will be constructed in both the plots. will he be attracted to the tax under capital gain.
4. If Mr. Suresh wants to give this amount to his Wife and 2 Son’s what would be the best way and how should he invest. So that there will be no tax under capital gain.
Pls suggest.
