18 September 2011 Can the renovation cost of purchased house be included in the acquisition cost for minimising/avoiding LTCG when this house is bought from the sale proceeds of a plot of land(Under section 54 F). Please explain.

18 September 2011 if the renovation cost increase the efficiency of capital asset, i.e addition to the property, then it is to be capitalized,

normal wear and tear/ maintanance/ painting etc are not capital inclusion.

18 September 2011 Please explain in some detail with reference to my question.

18 September 2011 Construction / purchase of house only qualifies for exemption under section 54F. The said section does not provide for exemption on investment in renovation or modification of an existing house.
