Definately a long term capital gain as all friends said rightly. Cost to previous owner would deemed to be cost of acquisition for y and z in the tratio of therir holdings... Such shared cost of acquisition would be indexed with cost inflation index. and gain would calculated accordingly..

Thanks and regards,

Transfer of House from X to his sons is not taxable as Capital gains as it is gift and same when being transferred to Third party Y and Z are liable for Captial gains tax

cost of acquistion is given 10 lakh,

no matter when the house got registered in x and y name,

capital gain 10lakh,,ie. 20lakh-10 lakh

simply indexed cost of accquisition will be calculated on 10, 00, 000

ie, 12,90,381,,, 1000000*711/551

capital gain 20 00 000-12 90 381=7 09 618.

tax to be paid by x and y in ratio of hodilng the property,

suposse if property is held 50-50, it would be 354809 each,:)

if there is any error, then please rectify

it is Taxable in the hand of Y & Z in the ratio as the ration in which they received the property.

and the cost of acquistion for calculation of capital gain would be the cost of X

Computation of capital gain :-

Period of holding :- 2007 to 2011 morethan 36months

FULL VALUE OF CONSIDERATION                                              2000000

LESS : EXPENSES ON TRANSFER                                                    NIL

NET CONSIDEARTION                                                                     2000000

LESS:- INDEXED COST OF ACQUISITION                                      1369942

      ( 1000000*711/519)

GROSS LONG TERM CAPITAL GAIN                                                 630058

lESS: eXEMPTION U/S 54 TO 54H                                                       (IF ANY HAS TO BE DEDUCTED)

LONG TERM CAPITAL GAIN                                                                630058

NOTE:-

As per sec 46 & 47 the above transaction is not regarded as transfer hence no question of capital gains will be taxed in the hands of father..

Hence capital gains will be taxed in the hands of Y & Z in proprotion of their holdings..

It will be long term capital gain as the holding period will be taken from 2007 while the indexed cost of acquisition will be taken from 2009 and it will be taxable in the hands of  Y & Z in the ratio of their holding since they are the registered owner of the property.

Y & Z is liable for capital gain and its tax, in the ratio of their holding

Indexed cost of acquisition would be taken from 2007 in case of gift, and 2009 in case of transfer against consideration.

Section 56(2)(VII) is being introduced from 1.10.2009 v.i.a finance act 2010 further amended by finance act 2010.

As per the above section such gift is taxable in the hands of receipient i.e major son & daughter in proportion of their share(assuming it is being transfered without any consideration) in the PY 2009-10.

now on sale the capital gain will be calculated in the hands of Daughter and son in the said proportion, for this purpose

COA=as per section 49(4)=should be the amount taxed in the hands of son & daughter in PY 2009-10

period of holding=should include include the POH of the previous owner i.e father as this transaction is covered by 49(1).

Indexation=In numinator index for the year of transfer...in denominator index for year of first aquistion by transferor(son & daughter) i.e 2009-10

any doubt???

both are taxable equally .... ten lakhs will be allowed as indexed cost of acquisition .

Agreed

Here Y n Z  are liable to LTCG in the ratio of holding because period of holding of previous owner is to be considerd however benefit of indexation is available only from 2009 and not from 2007...
