Offce Premises


This query is : Resolved 

Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the tax treatment when an office premise, previously rented out and then sold, is disposed of. The excess received over its written-down value (WDV) is generally considered a short-term capital gain, taxable at applicable slab rates, rather than business profit. The sale proceeds also need to be adjusted against the block of assets for depreciation calculations on the remaining assets.
