Dear Rakesh,

The owner ship comes on payment of the amount.as the person has just booked the flat so we cant say that he would have made the payment. Any interest paid during the period is to be included in the cost of acquisition. As per me this income will be taxable under the head income from other source. Well try to confirm the same from others.

Bye

 

Sir as I said after 3 and half years he want to sell his flat as he is going to sell his flat means he paid the amount and interest is what he is paying on home loan. he still not got the flat to stay so we can treat it as capital gain in which long term or what

According to my understanding, In case of a property acquisition comes with the POSESSION of property...And in your case Assesse has not got the posession...He is only having a RIGHT to acquire flat..and if he wants to sells this RIGHT then there is no provision under Capital Gain to tax the sale of a RIGHT (except in case of Renouncement of Right Shares in a Company for which there is a specific provision)..Any transanction (even if it is ocassional) settles without a DELIVERY then  it comes under Speculation  Business..Interest on Loan will be allowed as deduction in computing under Speculation Business..

Hi Rakesh, It seems that Mr.A has not acquired the flat he has just booked it and i also think allottment of property is still pending till posession and as per the analysis the question of L.T.C.G AND S.T.C.G does not arise.

Thanks

Yes Rakesh it will be taxable under the head capital gain. As according to section 2(47), Defination of transfer includes relinquishment of right. and as u have explained that he has also paid the money so he will have to pay long term capital gain.

I agree with saharsh.

 Yes, Mr. Saharsh is right
