As X has left his jewellery, a capital asset under the will which Y has received, in respect of the cost of acquisition, provisions of Sec.49(1)(ii) are applicable. The cost of acquisition in the hands of Y will be Rs. 5 lacs, the cost of acquisition of X by way of purchase.
As per the provisions of Sec.2(42A) of the Act, a capital asset held for less than 36 months is to be considered as Short Term Capital Asset.However, as per Explanation 1 (b) to the proviso after the definition, the period of holding of asset by the previous owner has to be considered if the asset is held in thecircumstances mentioned in the provisions of Sec. 49.
