But it should be treated as gift to relative
If it is treated as gift, will it not treated as transfer as U/s 47(iii) of income tax act?? why will it still treated and allowed as capital loss?
1. It's treated as Gift in hands of wife as immovable property received for inadequate consideration.
2. It's Considered as sale of property in your hand and LTCG applicable with sale consideration as stamp duty value
So, Stamp duty value less indexed cost is capital gain or loss, as the case may be
