Yes capital gain is application as STCG with indexation benefit

If a director purchases land in his own name and later transfers it to the company at a higher value (in this case, Rs 55 lakhs), the tax treatment depends on the holding period and the nature of the asset.

  • Short-Term Capital Gain (STCG) would typically apply if the land is sold within 36 months of acquisition. Since the director transferred the land after 8 months, it will be treated as a short-term capital gain.

  • The difference between the sale price (Rs 55 lakhs) and the purchase price (Rs 30 lakhs) will be subject to capital gains tax.

  • Since the director transferred the property to the company, the company may also need to evaluate its tax position, and TDS has already been paid, which is in accordance with the applicable tax provisions.
