Shri Harshad M Thakkar (Gandhi) Vs DCIT (ITAT Ahmedabad) We are at loss to understand as to how the factual aspects like lack of basic amenity and a non-descript temporary makeshift shelter/ superstructure of insignificant worth can convert a land into a residential house. The vast open land with naturally grown grass, a grossly asymmetric […]
Ayushi Patni Vs DCIT (ITAT Pune) Whether the assessee is eligible for claiming exemption u/s 54F in respect of residential flat / house for which the assessee has entered into an agreement for purchase more than one year before the date of transfer of capital asset? The dates qua, transfer of capital asset, execution of […]
Since final consideration was paid and the possession of flat was received within a period of one year prior to the date of transfer of capital asset, then the same should be considered as the date of purchase, so as to allow the benefit of deduction under section 54F to assessee.
Assessee was entitled to the benefit of deduction u/s.54F to the whole extent of investment in purchase of new asset, even though property had been purchased in the joint names of assessee, his wife and son.
section 2(47) laid down that transfer would include a transaction allowing possession of an immovable property in part performance of a contract of a nature referred to in Section 53A of the transfer of Property Act. In the case on hand, part performance of a contract had taken place and possession had been handed over. Thus, the claim of exemption was to be accepted as assessee had only one house property as on the date of sale of the plots of land giving rise to long-term capital gain.
Shri Govind Gangadhar Sabane Vs ITO (ITAT Pune) There is no dispute to the fact that one capital asset was sold and thereafter, new house was constructed. That both the Revenue Authorities in their respective orders have agreed that the Inspector had visited the site and has reported that residential house has been constructed consisting […]
