Dear Sirs,

Sale of REIT units is normally taxed as Capital Gains:

  • 15% for short term

  • 10% above ₹1 lakh for long term

Use ITR-2 unless you are actively trading, in which case use ITR-3.

It does not automatically fall under business income unless trading pattern indicates so.

Thank you sir
