Computation of capital gains on sale of land

hi i need little assiatnce regarding following case law:

a person sold land in 2011-12.but the transaction is not yet complete in the sense that registration of land is not completeed and the seller has received only part of the sale consideration.(still the return is not filed for the seller for ay:2012-13).

Hi,

Since in the case referred to above ownership has not been transferred no capital gain would arise. The receipt also being considered as Capital Receipt will not be chargeable to tax in the referred AY. Hope it clarifies your doubt.
