Capital Gains

Tax planning 472 views 5 replies

Hello,

-Mr X has received proceeds of Rs.10,00,000 from transfer of a capital asset  (LTCG)

-of the proceeds a hand loan was given to Mr Y of Rs.2,00,000

-Mr Y has issued 2 promisory notes to re-pay this amount within a period. But of late he has been delaying the payment and this has led to Mr X funds being blocked.

Is there any way by which Mr X can show in his ITR that the loan is ir-recoverable and he will be required to pay tax on only Rs. 8,00,000 or is he liable to pay tax on the whole proceeds?

The law doesn't state any such reliefs. Please correct me if im wrong. Also mention the case laws if there are any.

 

Thanks

You have to pay tax on entire LTCG…. 

Thanks pankaj...i was under the same notion!

LTCG Tax is payable only on the gain part and not on the sale proceeds. You can save the LTCG Tax only if you invest the gains in a Capital Gaines Scheme.

Agree with Pankaj and Devendra. Moreover, as far my knowledge a bad debt of loan is only allowed if it was given for Earning an income.

Mr Devendra...yea im aware of that but thanks. question was framed slightly wrong.

 

but Mr Avijit can u please tell me which section allows the instance which u jus stated???
