Quick Summary
This discussion explores the tax implications of receiving compensation for relinquishing tenancy rights on a rented property. Experts clarify that such proceeds are generally treated as Long Term Capital Gains (LTCG), regardless of whether the property is commercial or residential. The key factor is the sale of the tenancy right itself.

How the rent income was treated.

If declared u/h. IFHP; then the proceeds received from developer will be treated under long term capital gain.

apologies, a small typing mistake changed the meaning of the sentence. now corrected. please check and advise.

OK.... You have tenancy right in a commercial premises. So, when you give up the right for any consideration, it will be considered as LTCG.

thank you for your prompt response sir.

it is vey helpful.

 

is it the same treatment for residencial property as well ? 

or is it, that only commercial proerty comes under ltcg ?

 

Any property, the gain is over TENANCY right..
