Quick Summary
When selling an inherited apartment, capital gains tax applies to the profit made from the sale. The buyer's proposed payment method of 50% online and 50% cash raises questions about tax liability on the cash portion. It's crucial to be aware that tax authorities monitor cash transactions, and capital gains are typically taxed at 10% or 15% depending on whether the asset was held long-term and if indexation benefits apply.

Income tax is watching...

There are few members from ITD who are inspecting such queries on Cash transactions...

Be careful...

Point 1. sale of capital asset leads to capital gain .
2. long term term capital asset as evident from the discussion.
3. sale consideration less cost of acquisition.
if indexed 15%
otherwise 10% in excess of 1 lac.
