Quick Summary
This discussion explores whether selling a flat before it's officially registered and possessed, particularly when it's under construction, incurs Capital Gains Tax. The consensus suggests that if the flat is considered a capital asset, any surplus received from such a sale, even before formal registration or possession, is likely subject to capital gains tax.

Ofcourse it is a capital assets for you unless you are engaged in business of real estate, thus capital gain will be there on such transaction.
Thanks Abhay...I thought so as the Asset was not created yet and there was no possession.
