Quick Summary
This discussion explores whether an assessee can claim a long-term capital loss (LTCL) on shares that have been extinguished from their demat account due to an Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC) process, without receiving any compensation. While the initial thought was that no 'transfer' occurred, the consensus leans towards the possibility of claiming a capital loss. The key point of contention is how to quantify this loss, with the prevailing opinion suggesting it should be based on the face value of the shares rather than the purchase price.

May be it is not a loss because for considering it as capital loss there should be a transfer of the asset.
in this case transfer of asset is not happening.
Hello Shivam Bhatia
in this case according to sec 2(47) of IT ACT
transfer includes extinguishment ....
Quantifying the capital loss is the point here.if face value is Rs10 and if you bought at Rs1000, you can claim loss of Rs 10 per share not Rs 990 per share.

yeah right but can we claim LTCL of purchased amount or of face value of rs.10???

Face value. Just before delisting the share price will be face value and lnsolvency starts then. so the loss is from face value to zero
