Read your article on the Home and capital gains,but the last sentence was not clear. I understand that now the tax on long term capital gains for share transactions is abolished. Is it applicable to other assets too or not ?
i think there is a different tax rate if u do not go in for indexation and sometimes that tax rate can be more beneficial hence plz check before going in for indexation.

The article gave clarity and information regarding capital gains. but i doubt about the statement that investments should be made out of capital gains within the date of submission of IT RETURNS. i think it should be within six months time from the date of execution of sale deed.

Even I would like to know about the same.
In my case, the house was bought under allotment for which 10% registration amount was given at time of application sometime in 1979. After allotment letter, rest amount was paid in annual installents. The house was completed in Dec 1985.
