If during the course of assessment proceedings, the assessee filed details of claim of exemption of the same u/s.54F of the Act, the Assessing Officer is duty bound to entertain those details and verify the same and if the assessee is found eligible otherwise as per the conditions u/s.54F of the Act, he is bound to allow deduction to the assessee.
Assessee was entitled to full exemption u/s. 54 when full amount was invested by assessee even though property was purchased in joint names of assessee and his brother.
1. This appeal under Section 260 A of the Income Tax Act, 1961(the Act) assails the order dated 31st October, 2012 passed by the Income Tax Appellate Tribunal (Tribunal). The impugned order relates to Assessment Year 2006-07 2. This appeal was admitted on 28th January, 2015 on the following substantial questions of law:-
In this case assessee having got 15 flats along with his two sons will not disentitle him from getting the benefit U/s. 54F of IT Act only on ground that all the 15 flats are not in the same Block, particularly in the light of admitted factual position that all the 15 flats are located at same address.
Section 2(42A) – Reduction in holding period in case of immovable property, being land or building or both, to qualify as long term capital asset – Consequential amendments to be made in sections 54, 54B, 54D and 54F
ITAT held that holding period should be computed from the date of issue of allotment If we do so, the holding period becomes more than 36 months and consequently, the property sold by the assessee would be long term capital asset in the hands of the assessee and the gain on sale of the same would be taxable in the hands of the assessee as Long Term Capital Gain
In Ajay Kumar v. ITO, the division bench of the Allahabad High Court held that exemption under section 54F of the Income Tax Act will not be available when the assessee has not started construction in the purchased plot within the stipulated time.
Shri K. Balasubramanian, the learned representative for the assessee submitted that the assessee HUF, sold 122.840 carat of diamonds on 2-1-2012 for a total consideration of Rs. 57,12,060. The long-term capital gain computed at Rs. 42,65,619. According to the learned representative, there was no dispute about sale of diamonds and the computation of long-term capital gain at Rs. 42,65,619.
This appeal of the assessee is directed against the order of the Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals) – 13, Chennai dated 15.09.2016 and pertains to the assessment year 2012-13.
In the case of shares of unlisted companies, transfer would take place, only when valid share transfer form in form no. 7B is delivered to the company and endorsed by the Company. Therefore, for effective transfer of shares a mere agreement for transfer of shares is not sufficient, unless it is physically transfer shares by delivery of share certificate along with duly signed and stamped share transfer form.
