Dear Dilip,

U r rite dat conversion of bond is covered by sec 47

But conversion of prefernce shares are not covered by Sec 47 & hence any such conversion would attract capital gains.

Now regarding sale consideration, this is d case of exchange of assets & in such cases generally the price of asset received is taken as "Sales Consideration"
