I have bought a property (Residential Land) in 2010. This is registered for 16 Lakhs. But I have taken a loan for 47 Lakhs from Axis bank. I am planning to sell the property now. What amout will be taken as the buy amount to calculate Capital Gains tax (16 Lakhs registered value or I can give proof for 47 Lakh loan amount)

I have taken Home Loan for purchasing the same plot

Nope, you can't  take 47 Lakhs cause if you try to prove that then you agree that you have purchased the property at gross undervalue and have evaded duty of the state

Yes the loan amount can not exceed the registery value of the property as it will be taxed in your hand as unexplained investment in section 69 of the Act.

1st in 2010 if stamp value of land is more than 16 lacs and difference betwen stamp value and 16lacs is more than 50,000 then u needs to pay tax u/s 56(ii)(vii) if u paid it at that time then take stamp value as cost of acquisition otherwise take only 16lacs as cost of acquisition. Don't take loan amount as cost of acquisition.

Can Exemption under Section Section 54 be claimed from Long Term Capital Gains Tax for  selling a Residential Property and investing the entire or part of the LTCG in purchasing more than one residential  Property within the stipulated periods .    Kindly advise.

 

 

 

Yes sir you can take exemption u/s 54.

Madam

I think Section 54F relates to situation where LTCG due to Transfer of a Non-Residential Real Estate Property is proposed to be invested in RESIDENTIAL  PROPERTY with in the stipulated periods in the IT Act.

thanks to get me correct .yes 54 F is for non residential property. but 54 is for residential house
