 i m individual . pls reply as my query

 

as per explation (iii) to section 48

“indexed cost of acquisition” means an amount which bears to the

cost of acquisition the same proportion as Cost Inflation Index for

the year in which the asset is transferred bears to the Cost Inflation

Index for the first year in which the asset was held by the assessee

or for the year beginning on the 1st day of April, 1981, whichever is

later:

 

hence indexation can be availed form the date of possession.

payments prior to possession is advance to builder, and during that period there was no house property held by you, but on registration date ( possession) in 2008 you got house property, so your capital gain will start from 2008-09. Regarding the expenses after possession, have u shown these expenses capitalized in house property in your return for subsequent years? if yes then these are added to your house property, if not then no addition.
