Plz explain sec 51

Can anyone plz explain the concept of Sec 51 ie Treatment of Advance Money recieved by the assesse?

Section 51 of the Income-tax Act, 1961 provides that any advance forfeitedby the seller of a property is deductible from the cost of the asset.

Theeffect of this provision is that subsequently when the same asset is sold,

a larger amount becomes taxable as capital gains in view of the original costbeing reduced to the extent of the amount forfeited.
