Quick Summary

This discussion explores whether Section 50C of the Income Tax Act applies to a flat purchased through a bank auction under the SARFAESI Act. The central question is whether the 'market value' for capital gains tax purposes is the auction purchase price or the subsequent sale price, and if the auction sale itself exempts the transaction from Section 50C provisions.

04 April 2024 Seetharaman ji. He bought the flat in auction. But from his message it seems, that he is selling it later on! so not sure auction sale part is relevant anymore.
