Tax planning 535 views 2 replies

Hi,

 

my query is regarging the conversion of a proprietory concenr into a partnership business.

 

Scenario:- A, B , C & D are four individuals. A has a sole proprietory concern of his own.

Now the four said individuals decide to form a partnership firm. B, C & D induce their share of capital by way of cash.

However, A for his share of capital introduces all his sundry creditors, Sundry Debtors, Work-in-progress & movable assets.

 

Hence my question being will A suffer capital gains in his individual file ?

 

kindly reply to this query at this earliest.

capital gain tax is attracted on "TRANSFER" of "CAPITAL ASSET"..

so to my knowledge:-

Sundry credtor/sundry debtors/ work in progress:- Not chargeable to capital gains (as they are not capital asset)

For movable assets:- Please specify which movable assets are being transferred.

All the assets transferred by A to partnership firm are current assets except moveable assets, if there is any capital gain on such fixed assets it will be capital gain of the firm and taxable in hands of the firm since the asset has been transferred to the firm
