Whether it will be a capital asset


This query is : Resolved 

26 February 2015 My client have purchased a flat from a builder under contract of payment in installment.
The first installment was made in 2006, and last installment in 2011, after that he received the possession in same year.
Later within 3 months of receiving possession he sold that flat and purchased another flat.
My query is whether the capital gain calculated on 1st flat will be short term or long term ?
Will it qualify to be a long term capital asset ? Will the purchase date of flat be counted from first installment or from the date of receiving possession ?

26 February 2015 It will be counted from the flat booking date. It will be a long term capital gain.
