Buyer has deducted TDS in my name even though flat has not been registered in my name
I have capital gains of Rs.20 L on this transaction

Can it be treated as long term capital gain and can I claim exemption under section 54 / 54F

27 February 2024 @ca r seetharaman - sir,there is a small change in my query: The flat which I sold in September 2023 has sale deed which shows that land owners are vendors.
It shows my name under" Consenting witness".
Will it be capital gains or income from other sources.

27 February 2024 It will be capital gains as you have purchase agreement and paid the money for purchase.
