Property purchased through POA

A plot was purchased in 2003-04 through POA. But it's registry was done in 2015-16. Everything done through cheque, no cash.

Query:
1) Which year will be taken for cost of acquisition ? 2003-04 or 2015-16 ?
2) In case if, 2003-04 would be taken as cost of acquisition, than how indexation of registry charges will be done ? From 2003-04 or 2015-16 ?

Thanks & Regards

Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the acquisition year for a property purchased via Power of Attorney (POA). If payments were made by cheque in 2003-04, that year can be considered for the cost of acquisition. However, registration charges paid in 2015-16 will be treated as part of the cost of acquisition in 2015-16, with indexation applicable from that later date.

When was the possession of plot received?

2003-04

1. If the payment/s were made in 2003-04, by cheques or bank transfers, then you can consider it 2003-04.

2.  Registration charges paid would be considered as COI in 2015-16, indexation can be claimed from then.
