September 28, 2012 5558 Views 0 comment Print

Consideration as shown in the Registered Sale Deed cannot be equated with ‘Fair Market Value’, as defined in the Act u/s 2(22B) of the Act. /Therefore, adoption of average value of land at Rs. 27,030/- per acre as on 1.4.1981, as ‘Fair Market Value’ of the land in question, for the purpose of computation of capital gains, is not legally and factually tenable. ‘Fair Market Value’ represents the price that a seller is willing to accept and a buyer is willing to pay in the open market. The price or sale consideration as specified in the Registered Sale Deed of an asset in India represents the price or sale consideration negotiated or determined not in the open market but in the parallel operating market where such transactions crystallized in a clandestine manner. In view of this, sale consideration of an asset, as recorded in the Registered Sale Deed is generally understated and, hence, cannot he taken as ‘Fair Market Value’ as on 1.4.1981 for the purpose of computation of ‘Capital Gains’.
