If new property was not purchased before income tax return filing last date (31st July), the sale consideration amount had to be invested into capital gains scheme accounts. If this is not done, income tax department will ask for tax payment. If your father has invested into residential property or into agricultural property, then income tax benefit would arise. If not, tax would be payable. I would advise you to not waste any time further and consult an experienced CA/tax professional expert in property matters to avoid any serious consequences. answered Sep 24 '11 at 18:36 by Pankaj Batra 5.2k●3●20 |
