We bought a flat in 2002 for 17L possession of which was given in 2003. However, the registration (registration fees about 1.65L) was done in 2016, in my husband's name. My husband transferred the property to me via a gift deed in 2018. I am selling this property this year (2023) for 95L. What is the LTCG on this property on which I have to pay tax? What will be the date of acquisition and cost of acquisition to be considered on which indexation is to be done?

Ans: Namaste Ji,
Greetings from REDIFFGURUS!
Based on your daughter's percentile in JEE, she can aim for branches like Core Mechanical, Electrical, or ECE in the spot rounds of these institutes, or for CSE/IT in lower-tier IPU colleges such as ADGITM, BPIT, HMR Institute of Technology and Management (Delhi), and TIIPS (Noida).

**Delhi NCR Private Universities**
These universities admit students through their entrance exams or directly using JEE Main scores. She can easily secure branches like CSE, AIML, or IT in the following reputed NCR institutions: Galgotias University, NIET, Sharda University, G.L. Bajaj Institute of Technology and Management at Noida, and the NorthCap University (Gurugram). The options are yours; plan accordingly.

All the best!

Ans: HI,
GREETINGS FROM REDIFFGURUS!
Based on your rank in VITEEE, he is likely to be placed in categories 4/5 at the Vellore/Chennai campuses for core branches (Mechanical, Civil, Electrical), or categories 2/3 at Bhopal/Amaravati for CSE Core/Specializations and others in categories 1-2. In Vellore/Chennai, CSE Core is not possible, but CSE Specializations in category 5 are possible. Choose the branch that interests you for a better future.

All the best!

Ans: HI LASYA
GREETINGS FROM REDIFFGURUS!
Based on your rank in VITEEE, VIT Chennai campus is a stronger contender for specialized IT or core branches like Computer Science (Specializations) in categories 4 and 5. For Electronics & Electrical: EEE/EIE, it's possible in categories 2 and 3. For core branches, Mechanical, Civil, or Biotech are in categories 2 and 3.

**VIT Vellore Campus**
In Vellore, Computer Science/IT is not possible. For Electronics & Electrical, categories 4 or 5 are available. Core branches such as Mechanical/Production or Civil are offered in categories 2 or 3. Plan, participate, and acquire a seat in either Vellore or Chennai for a brighter future.

All the best!

Ans: HI,
GREETINGS FROM REDIIFFGURUS!
According to your rank in VITEEE, the best possibilities are as follows:

- VIT Chennai: High probability for ECE, EEE/ECSE in Categories 1-3, and for CSE specializations in Categories 3-5.
- VIT-AP/Bhopal: Strong, direct possibilities for Core CSE in Categories 2-3, and CSE specializations in Categories 1-2.
- VIT Vellore: Core IT or Mechanical Engineering in Categories 4-5; CSE is out of reach.

ALL THE BEST.

Ans: HI PRANAY,
GREETINGS FROM REDIFFGURUS!
Generally, placement is based on the student's performance from 10th grade to undergraduate studies, as well as their performance in personal interviews. So, as a candidate, you need to prepare accordingly and develop excellent communication skills, as well as both soft and hard skills before appearing for interviews. In my opinion, Manipal is the best option. Based on your rank in COMEDK, you can secure seats in the following colleges:

- **Dayananda Sagar**: Strong chance for Civil/Mechanical.
- **KLE**: Possible seats for Electrical/Mechanical.
- **Vidyavardhaka College of Engineering, Mysuru**: Good options for Mechanical and basic core engineering.
- **Global Academy of Technology, Bengaluru**: ECE.
- **Presidency University, Bengaluru**: ASE/ECE.
- **Shri Madhwa Vadiraja**: CSE/ECE.
- **GGSIPU**: You have a realistic chance of securing core branches (Mechanical/Electrical/Civil/Automation) at colleges under IPU, such as HMRITM, ADGITM, BPIT, TIIPS, or DTC.
It is up to you to decide the program, campus, and location.

All the best!
