Dear Sumit sir ,

Sorry ,I wrongly quoted.  Property B is Urban land under muncipalty area.

Kushal sir,

Can I take the cost of acquisition Rs.30,00,000/- while selling to Rs 2600000/- in above transction for comptuation of capital gain.

 

for seller. Section 50C applies

                                          property A                          Prop B

Sale consideration           5,50,000                30,00,000

 

for buyer. Section 55 applies.

 

COA of property B for the buyer shall be 5,65,000 and not 30,00,000

If property is inherited property and cost not known then how we will calculate capital gain.
