1. It attracts capital gain then

In this question you are mentioning it is individual house (I am taking it as a residential house).

In this case, What they did with the amount received.

1) Invested some other house

2) Building a new house

3) Are putting in to a bank as general deposit

If it is clear we can answer your query.

Dear Sir

Thanks for the reply. The house in question is a residential house. All the three legal heirs , two sons and wife have put the money in a general FD.

 

Then they has to pay the capital gain tax. If the value of the house is available, by indexation after considering the development costs, we have to determine the current value of the house and sale value - expenses incurred for sale = is your long term capital gain

On that, you have to pay 20% + 3% cess need to be paid as tax.

If you have any further querty you can ask me on 9994586481
