Quick Summary
This discussion explores whether the capital gain on a Mumbai flat sale qualifies as long-term or short-term. The key debate centres on which date determines the holding period: the registration date or the possession date. While one opinion suggests short-term gain, another argues for long-term based on the registration agreement, citing relevant rulings.

It's a short term Capital gain.

Based on registration agreement, right in the property is acquired on 30.09.2013. As such it becomes LT holding.

Dear Sirs, 

I am confused. 

Dhirajlal Sir  Please site some  Rulings in  Our  favour 

Thanks in advance.
