Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies how to calculate capital gains tax on the sale of immovable property, specifically referencing Section 50C of the Income Tax Act. It explains that the stamp duty value is considered the sale consideration under certain conditions, particularly regarding payment methods like cheques or ECS. The impact of recent amendments (from 1-4-2020) on the acceptable variance between the stamp duty value and agreement value is also highlighted, noting the shift from 5% to 10%.

As per 50C of income tax act.
Stamp duty value on the date of agreement will be taken as sale consideration only if part of the consideration is received by way of account payee cheque or account payee bank draft or ECS
As per amended provision, from 1-4-2020 if the reockner Vale is above upto 10% of agreement value then agreement value is acceptable under 50C and no extra tax liability in the hands of buyer and seller.

(Before amendment it was 5%)
