23 January 2017 Better option will be buy the property in your name and gift it to your sons so that you can avoid capital gains tax.

25 January 2017 If the assessee had sold the property and purchased new property in the name of his sons then the assessee has to prove that he had purchased new property in his sons name and the payment has been made by him not by his sons.

If the assessee is planning to purchase new property in the name of his sons then the better option is to purchase the new property jointly in his and his sons names rather to transfer money to his son to purchase property by his son jointly with his brother.
