19 April 2015 The law does not prohibit such transactions but practically it is not so easy.
.
You may have to start a new planning for HUF if by selling the property HUF becomes liable to CG Tax.
.
You have to consider the Market Value of the said property. Stamp duty of 6-8% will be payable on the Sales Consideration. This may be a costly affair.
.
We have to think about the Individual's share in the Property of HUF and provisions of partial partition also.
