Quick Summary
This discussion explores whether capital gains tax applies to an exchange of properties between two brothers. One brother exchanges a house for a vacant site owned by the other. While some believe Section 47(iii) of the IT Act exempts such transactions, others suggest that structuring the exchange as a gift might avoid tax, though this requires careful planning.

As per Section 47(iii), capital gains tax will not be applicable in both the above inter-related cases, in my humble opinion.
Dear Sir, if you structure it as an exchange, then it is taxable as capital gains. However, if you plan the transaction as a gift, then not taxable. But there are intricacies in your case and requiring solid structuring.
Its not taxable
No it's not taxable
