Dear Chokshi JI I have sold a residential property in Feb.2023 and have capital gain of about 15.00 lakh. To construct new house, I have already bought residential plot costing 9.00 lakh and sale deed registered in May,2023. The cost of Plot was meet out from the sale proceed of the residential property sold in Feb.23. Kindly advise whether I have to kept Rs.6.00 lakh (i.e.Gain15.00 lakh minus 9.00 lakh cost of Plot) in Capital Gain Account Scheme for the construction of House OR I have to kept whole money of Capital Gain i.e. Rs.15.00 lakh in the CGAS. How much Amount I have to show in the IT Return for AY 2023-2024 ?
Ans: As per the provisions of the Income Tax Act in India, if you have made a capital gain from the sale of a residential property and wish to claim exemption under Section 54F by investing in a new residential property, the following rules apply:

- You can claim exemption on the capital gains if you invest the entire amount of capital gains in a new residential property. In your case, the total capital gain is Rs. 15.00 lakh, and you have utilized Rs. 9.00 lakh to purchase the residential plot. To claim the exemption, you must utilize the entire Rs. 15.00 lakh amount for the construction of the new house.

- If you are unable to invest the entire capital gains amount before the due date of filing your income tax return (usually July 31st of the assessment year), you can deposit the unutilized amount in a Capital Gain Account Scheme (CGAS) before the due date to claim the exemption. In your case, if you haven't utilized the entire Rs. 15.00 lakh for purchasing the residential plot and construction has not yet begun, you must deposit the unutilized amount of Rs. 6.00 lakh in the CGAS.

- In your Income Tax Return for AY 2023-2024, you need to show the capital gains from the sale of the residential property, which is Rs. 15.00 lakh, and then claim the exemption under Section 54F for the amount utilized to purchase the residential plot and construct the new house (i.e., Rs. 9.00 lakh). Additionally, you should mention that the remaining Rs. 6.00 lakh is deposited in the CGAS for the purpose of constructing the new house to claim the complete exemption.

Please note that to avail of the exemption under Section 54F, you need to fulfill all the conditions mentioned in the section, such as not owning more than one residential house (excluding the new one) on the date of transfer of the original property and not purchasing any other residential property within a specified time frame.

Dr. Shyam, I had my teeth cleaned 6 months ago and after that was done I saw discoloration on certain teeth that wasn't there before. Years ago I had my teeth cleaned and one particular tooth after the cleaning was sensitive to touch. I had a crown put in from two different dental offices. The first one did the crown right, but was trying to charge me $3,500 more than the agreement they made with Medicare. Medicare corrected that. I other dentist did a crown and it didn't go all the way up to my gums and is sensitive to especially cold things. I'm not having very good experiences with dentist by and large. Can't find an honest one or one that can actually do the job right. I feel being on Medicare your a target to bring in money. Not sure what to do next. Supposed to go back and have them redo the crown that didn't go to my gums, but it also was ttd place to didn't clean my teeth right and discolored some of them. Any suggestions on how to trust there is actually an capable and honest dentist out there who can perform properly?

5. Assess their facility and equipment: A well-organized and modern dental office with up-to-date equipment is a good sign.

6. Check their approach to preventive care: A capable dentist emphasizes preventive care, including regular cleanings, exams, and education on oral hygiene.

7. Be wary of over-treatment: A honest dentist will not recommend unnecessary procedures. Be cautious if you feel pressured into extensive treatments.

8. Trust your instincts: If something feels off or you don't click with the dentist, it's okay to explore other options.

10. Schedule a consultation: Many dentists offer initial consultations or meet-and-greets. Use this opportunity to assess their approach, ask questions, and gauge your comfort level.

By following these steps, you can increase your chances of finding a capable and honest dentist who prioritizes your oral health and well-being.
