Balance amount i had paid in instalment till March,15 and got possession of flat in August,15.As per income tax AO i am not entitle for Capital gain benefit as i had paid only 2lacs as initial payment and got allotment letter. Rest i had paid in instalment.Secondly i have done registration of flat in Dec,2015.As per AO Allotment letter would represent only right to purchase a flat.
