Ltcg & 2nd residential property query

Tax planning 225 views 3 replies

dear all

i have two queries. kindly advise.

i bought a house in 2010. this was my first residential property, which i rented out.

in 2014, my mom bought her 2nd residential property, and my name was in 2nd owner of that house. althgouth, i didnt invest any money in that house. this house was also rented out.

i sold my first house, bought in 2010, in 2016.

Q1. will the house, bought by my mom and me being joint owner, be considered as my 2nd house ?

Q2. i wish to buy another residential house, with a friend of mine in 50-50 sharing basis. if i invest all my LTCG, (earned from my first house, sold in 2016), in the new house, (which is being bought in partnership with a friend), will my LTCG investment in 2nd house be valid ? will my LTCG be exepted ?

please advise.

thanks

Yes, your mom will be considered as second house

Yes, your LTCG will be exempted.

hi mr baig

thanks for your advise.

with respect to Q1, my query was "will this house be considered as MY second house too" ??

thanks again.

good day.

In my opinion

currently you are having only one house which jointly owned by you & your mom - it will considered as one house

Currently - you are planning to purchase one more house along with your friend will be considered as second house
