Provisions of section 50C are applicable only for computation of capital gains in real estate transaction in respect to seller only and not for purchaser

 

  • Section 50C creates a legal fiction for taxing capital gains in the hands of the seller and it cannot be extended for taxing the difference between apparent consideration and valuation done by Stamp Valuation Authorities as undisclosed investment u/s 69 in the hands of the purchaser
