As per section 115JB of Income Tax Act 1961, MAT Shall apply to all companies including foreign companies subject to specified conditions. MAT shall be paid @ 15% on book profits. To calculate Book profits Some adjustements are required to make additions or deletions from Net profit of a company. Since, in your case transferring unit fulfills transfer definition u/s 2(47) and hence Capital gain shall attract. While calculating MAT, Gain on sale of property does not affect the book profit u/s 115JB. You can ignore this adjustment while calculating book profit.
