Hello Ajay,
1. Date of allotment of flat will be 31/06/2005.
2. HPTA: If you buy something using a hire purchase agreement, you agree to pay for all or part of what you’ve bought in instalments. However, you are actually hiring the property until you’ve paid your last instalment. You will then be asked if you wish to buy the property.
You won’t own the property until you have paid off all the instalments and paid the purchase fee. When you've done this, the property transfers to your ownership. This is called getting good title.
3. As the date of allotment is 31/06/2005, and you sell the property on 01/08/09, so you are entitled to pay LTCG.
Wait for more replies.
