Markets of property, shares and jewellery are speculative in nature. People buy these assets either for security (Investment) or for speculation. The transactions in these assets are also subjected to capital gain tax.
The other benefit of long term asset that they can be indexed. Govt. has come out with index table called Cost Inflation Index whose base year was fixed as 1-4-1981. In Finance Bill 2017 the Govt. has taken a very bold step and has shifted the base year from 1981 to 2001 for the benefit of investors.
Also period of holding of land and / or building has been reduced from 36 months to 24 months.

I understand that a buyer of NRI property in India has to deduct TDS @ 22.88%. If an NRI’s capital Gain is NIL (sale price less than indexed cost), will the buyer still deduct @ 22.88%? In this case, under what conditions will the IT Office issue a NIL TDS Certificate? What will satisfy him? Will the buyer make no deduction then? Shall be obliged by an answer. Thanks
Please advise the cost inflation index for FY 2021/22

My mother is 67, a housewife and has never got in the business of filing returns or taxes. In 1989 she got a 539 sq ft single bed apt in Kandivli W, Mumbai for around ₹90000.

In year 1975 Purchased Agricultural land @ INR 6000.00, and sell in year 2021 @ INR 1,30,000.00 so how much it’s tax value.
You have said that the CII has moved to 2001. Does that mean any property acquired earlier than 2000, need not pay any tax?
Please explain.
I have property acquired in 1995. Hence the question
Bought 2BHK flat in mumbai for Rs. 85,000 in year 1985-86, sell for Rs. 80,00,000 in year 2020-21. What’s the LTCG calculation
800000-255850(85000/100*301)=7744150
LTCG ON 7744150@20.8%=1610784
Hi, As you’re willing to sell the property which you have acquired in 1995, i.e. before 2001, you should calculate indexed cost of acquisition by taking 2000-01 as base year and have to pay tax, if calculation results in capital gain @20%. Hope, this might help you.
Thanks
will it be applicable to property sold in financial year 2016-2017 ?
OFFHAND
In changing and re fixing the base year by itself may not be a bad idea ; and as such cannot be faulted.
Nonetheless, the nagging doubt in one’s mind this- does it stand to reason why the extant indexation has been left otherwise untouched ; except by simply adding the Index for 2016-17. To be precise, are not, by leaving the Index for the new Base year 2001-02 at 406,holders of property acquired before 1-4-2001 deprived of the benefit of indexation to that extent (i.e.406 points ) ?
Any different way of viewing or construing the change; over to tax pundits to enlighten !
