CAPITAL GAINs
by Guest on Oct 02, 2008 03:06 PM

I sold an inherited property for 35 lacs.
The owner from whom I inherited the property
purchased it at 2.5 lacs

I am now buying an apartment for 36 lacs. Agreement to sell is for 20 lacs and Construction agreement for 16 lacs.
All paid to developer through demand drafts for which I have recieved official receipts.

My developer is asking me to register the sale deed using guideline market value which amounts to 23 lacs for undivided share in land.

If I register the property paying a stamp duty on 23 lacs can i still save on capital gains tax on the 7 lacs left from sale of inherited property? I have the official receipts from developer for the full 36 lacs I paid him.
