Can I buy house property in company name? Allowed?

Pvt ltd 18580 views 10 replies

Hi, I run a pvt ltd company into IT. I would like to know if it would be possible to purchase a residential property under the company's name. I don't have the funds myself to buy the required property and don't want to issue a dividend requiring me to pay a dividend tax. So wanted to know if it was possible to buy and register a property under my company name. Is it legally allowed to register properties under the name of a pvt. ltd? And if so, are there any possible disadvantages/ pitfalls I need to be aware of before taking such a step.

Also, if allowed, will all the furnishing of the place be allowed as capital expenditure. And also property taxes paid annually allowed as expenses?

YES

But what are the pros/cons of doing so, anything I should know?

I too an eagerly awaiting an answer to this question. So is it possible to buy a apartment in company name and the director can enjoy its usage ?

company being a artificial judicial person can buy and hold property in its name. hence Residential property can also be held by the company and director can enjoy it. A considerable amount can be charged to the director or can be given as a perq.

This is just my opinion

Any one else.

Hi Friends

A pvt. company can buy a residential property in it'sown name. It can give it for accomodation to its director. Please check whether any FBT is applicable. Also Please check from any other tax issue applicable. Post this query in Tax section.

Dear All,

This is a well settled law that the company is a legal person in the eyes of law, thus fully capable of owning the property in its name. Thus there is not doubt on the fact that the company can own any property in its name. Further ,directors may be allowed to enjoy such property of the company  and they may be charged something for that or it may be allotted to them as House facility.

Dear sir,I wish to buy a propery in the company name with funding from my friend he is not director of the company But i wish add him director or shareholder of my company before buying property with his investment please guide me and help me to draft property registeration document format 

 

Thank you

how we can do this, if taken in name of employee, how we can justify such purchase

Yes a company can buy and hold property in its own name since it is an artificial judicial person.
