Sir I given land for developement I got this from my grandfather. I got 70 lakhs capital gain how to save tax in investment

Ans: To save tax, you can acquire house property and get exemption u/s 54F. As per section 54F, if you want to buy a residential house property from long term capital gain from sale of shares then you must buy the residential house property 1 year before or 2 years from date of such transfer of shares or construct the house property within 3 years from date of transfer of such shares. If amount can not be utilised before filing return then amount should be kept in CGAS.

To get the benefit of Sec 54F, person should not own more than one house property on the date of transfer of asset and not on the date of acquiring new residential property.

I will be getting above Rs 2 crore from the sale of my grandfather’s property in Darbhanga. How do I invest this amount to avoid paying or minimise capital gain tax and get the benefit of tax exemption?
Ans: Here are some pointers to help you understand the options available regarding tax optimisation and indexation benefits for your situation in India. Remember, consulting a qualified tax advisor is crucial before making any investment decisions.

Capital Gain Tax and Exemptions:

In India, capital gains exceeding Rs 2 crore from the sale of immovable property (like land and buildings) are subject to a 20%

Long-Term Capital Gains (LTCG) tax.

However, you have two main options to avoid paying LTCG tax:

1. Invest in Residential Property:

• You can reinvest the Rs 2 crore or more (up to the total capital gain amount) in a new residential property within India within 2 years before or 1 year after the sale of the old property.
• This reinvestment fully exempts you from LTCG tax.
• Note that the new property must be purchased in your name, your spouse's name, or your minor child's name.

2. Invest in Capital Gain Bonds:

• You can invest up to Rs 50 lakh per financial year in specified bonds issued by the government under Section 54EC.
• This investment will partially exempt the invested amount from LTCG tax.
• The lock-in period for these bonds is 3 years.
• Remember, this option only covers a portion of the total capital gain.

Indexation Benefits:

• Indexation helps adjust the cost of acquisition of the asset for inflation, potentially reducing the taxable capital gain.
• You can use the Cost Inflation Index (CII) published by the government to calculate the indexed cost of acquisition.
• This will reduce your taxable capital gain, potentially lowering your tax liability.

Things to Consider:

• Both options above have specific requirements and limitations. Carefully evaluate your financial goals and risk tolerance before choosing an option.
• Consult a qualified tax advisor to understand the nuances of each option and its impact on your specific situation.
• They can also help you with indexation calculations and ensure you claim the maximum possible benefits.

Hi, I am not yet mairred. I used to like a man and after a month we decided to get married. He was of my caste so I thought my parents won't deny this mairrage. I used to talk to and wanted to let him know everything about my past so that we can built a strong root of our relationship. I spoke every detail of my past life to him. Then before he proposed me for mairrage I went for a vacation with my male friend to dehradun. I didn't tell him that day as he didn't proposed me till that day then why would I tell everything about me to anyone. He was noone to me at that time. After that he came to visit me in Delhi and on the same when he was on train a friend of mine along with his fiance came to meet me after a very long time. I asked him and he didn't denied. After returning home he blocked me. I cried and cried, called multiple times but he didn't received my call. Even I went to his location and waited for almost 3 hr but he didn't came. Then I asked my sister to call him. Then he talked to me but he said me so much of harsh and vulgar words that I went in shock. I cried a lot but he went on humiliating me. But somehow I convinced him to stay with me. I never talked to that friend ever. Then I told my parents about him that I want to get married with this men. Being a girl's father my father enquired about him by being annonymous. And trust me noone has said anything good about him. Later on we get to know that his father has a murder case on him of his brother in law. But then I wanted to get married. Finally my parents agreed only for my happines. Meanwhile I was never being respected by him. He always doubt me, humiliate me, abuse me mentally and physically, and when I was like I don't want to be with you he used to say sorry and begged me to be with him. He even used to restrict to visit my uncle aunty. His mother wants used to defend him and never used to make him realise that he was wrong. Then before engagement we went to Kolkata to buy dress. Yes one more thing I have informed him on the very first day that I used to drink and smoke occassionally. So whenever he used to visit me he always wanted to drink with me whether I want it or not. He always used to abuse me and humiliate me in front of everyone after drinking, so after a period of time I used to avoid drinking. Then he used to fight with me for that also that why will you not drink. In kolkata the same thing happen. We stayed there for 3 days and he was convincing to go to club from the very first day but I refused. On 3rd he hit me. After engagement his family asked for dowry. After a lot of dealing my parents agreed for an amount. But I felt betrayed. I stopped talking. After after when I initiated the conversation he picked up a fight and said he won't marry. I tried to convince. But when everyone was blaming me then I broke my silence and said everything about him to my parent. But he manipulated everything and made me villain. My parents want me to get married as the society will insult our parents. I am getting married in November only for my parents but I have already made up my mind that I'll divorce him after 1 year of mairrage and will live my life alone. Am I thinking right? What should I do?
Ans: Dear Anonymous,
No, you are not thinking right at all...This man is all RED FLAGS...
Are you actually thinking of spending one year with a person who physically abuses you? Seriously?
And then you expect him to agree to that divorce without any fuss? What world are you in? No compromises on your life please...
Be wise and protect yourself...

All the best!
