Short term capital gain on house sale
This query is : Resolved

Hello all,
I have bought a duplex in sainikpuri, hyderabad in September 2009 for 48 Lakhs. Got it registered for 22 lakhs. Have taken a loan for 42.5 lakhs. Have spent on woodwork and other electrical equipment about 8 lakhs. All the money I spent was from my salary which I received after taxes were deducted. I am now selling the house for 57 lakhs. However, including the interest I paid to the house loan till now, the total cost is coming to 59 lakhs. But as per the law, I beleive the registered amount is taken into consideration and the rest is taxable. How should I avoid paying tax as financially I am not making any gains here. As the house sale is less than 3 years from the date of purchase, I cannot even claim exemption. Could anyone guide me in saving my hard earned money.
