Question by Pallavi on Jun 22, 2024Hindi

Career

My daughter got NIT PATNA cse is it good or not or whether she should took a drop

Ans: Pallavi Madam, prefer NIT-Patna for CSE. Drop is not at all advisable as a number of factors to be taken into consideration for the same such as, what was her percentile / Rank in JEE-Main & Advanced? What was her Score in Each Subject, PCM? Which coaching center she had joined and in which standard? Which NITs / IITs / Streams she was targeting? And why she wants to take a drop? She CAN take a drop only if she is 100% confident, changes her preparation strategies (better than last time) & she can score above 99.00 percentile in JEE-Main & below AIR-400 in her JEE-Advanced. All the BEST Madam for your daughter.

Hello sir, I am 34 years old and I want good job in MNC IT company with decent high salary package around 1 cr annual. Currently I am working in startup company with annual salary package 5.5 lakh. I have completed BCA and MCA with correspondence. For achieving growth in short time, I wanted to pursue MTech in computer science from IIT. Can I get placed in top reputed company after completing MTech from IIT. Please guide me in this regard.

Ans: Yes you can get placed in top reputed company after completing MTech from IIT. But it may not be easy. You will have to secure admission into one of the top IITs. Out there you will have to perform exceptionally well in academics and in field that is relevant to what is required for by top companies. You may have to take part and perform well in some of the inter college events like Hackathon at National . International level. Even then getting a package of Rs. 1 cr may be possible but not easy.

Question by V - Jul 25, 2024Hindi

Money

My father bought a house property in 1968 comprising of two floors. He passed away in August 2001 w/out a leaving Will. Me & My elder brother thus became co-owners until we executed two mutual Release Deeds in October 2023 whereby each of us became sole owners of Ground & First Floors respectively. If the property were to be sold by both of us now to a single buyer, will the date of acquisition continue to be reckoned as 1968 ( original year of acquisition by our father ) being a legacy asset and thus eligible for Indexation benefit even post 23rd July 2024 ? In other words does indexation continue in respect of inherited properties where the original acquisition date is prior to 2001 ? Thanks in advance for your valuable opinion please.

Ans: 01. In case of Sale of property by one or both of you, to a single buyer, its date of purchase shall remain 1968 only.
02. In the instant case, you would be entitled to the benefit of Indexation.
Most welcome for any further clarifications. Thanks.

I have inherited shares thru Will from my aunt in the year 2008 in the demat form. Since then I have kept as it is & never sold any of the shares as I'm not well versed with the market. Now as there was some urgent expense in the family I had to sell few shares. So Sir, my question is as I have inherited shares by Will, so should I have to pay Capital Gain tax on the sales of shares. If yes then how it is calculated. Please advise.

Ans: 01. There is no issue of inheritance involved in this case, as far as income tax is concerned.
02. If you sell shares, it would be subject to LTCG Tax under Income Tax.
03. Please note that only Gain would be taxed & not gross receipts from sale of shares.
04. There would be a tax exemption of up to Rs.1,25,000.00 per year on LTCG. Beyond this amount, it shall be taxed @12.50%.
05. If LTCG amount is more, then you may plan for certain other exemptions available under the income tax (u/s54F).

My mother transferred her share of ancestral property to my one maternal uncle(out of 6) some 15 years back. He had made some excuse and promised to transfer it back after 6 months but later on he divided it into 6 parts. We have no proof that he promised to return it. Can my mother reclaim her share now?

Ans: 01. When you make a Gift to someone, it can't be claimed back. At least it is not your legal right to claim it back. However, its just mutual understanding between two parties.
02. If your maternal uncle has divided the amount in 6 parts & shared the same with all 6 brothers, you can't exercise any choice or preference. It is his prerogative, to utilize the property in a way he likes.
Your mother probably has no right to reclaim her share.

Hello, I had brought a 2bhk for 1.15cr in 2015 with a bank loan of 65 lacs with present outstanding of 29 lacs. The present price of this property on sale is around 1.25cr. In 2023 I have bought another property for 2.00cr with a loan of 1.67cr. Does it make sense to sell the earlier property at a loss and prepay the new loan? What will be the tax implications? I am 51 years old now.

Ans: 01. You may sell the flat purchased earlier & pay off its loan. However, you would be entitled to LTCG Exemption only if the Purchase of New Flat & sale of old Flat is with in one year. Please compare the dates of Registration of both flats, since timeline is very important in this case.
02. Are you earning any income from the old flat ? If not, you may sell the property & repay the housing loan against new flat.
03. However, if you are earning reasonably from old flat, it would be beneficial to keep the same & utilize its income to pay EMIs.
Most welcome for any further clarifications. Thanks.
