How to save tax for the money earned from sale of house property besides bonds and reinvesting in house property? Can I gift the entire money to my son with both of us escaping income tax?

Ans: Options to save tax on sale of house property are limited, as rightly highlighted by you. Further, the reinvestment limit is restricted to INR 10 crs.

Unfortunately, gifting the money to your son will not help.

I am 68year old Pensioner. Last month I sold my house property and earned around Rs50lacs. I w am planning to gift the entire amount to my son in order to get tax exemption. My son is planning to utilise the amount to repay part of his housing loan from HDFC, probably during September 2025 . Now (1)Does he has to pay IT for this amount as he will be spending only in laterhalf of 2025? (2) Instead, if I invest this amount in LTCG or NHAI funds, do I have to pay any tax for this total amount this year?
Ans: Your decision to gift the proceeds from selling your house to your son reflects a heartfelt gesture of support and love. As you navigate the tax implications, it's essential to consider the timing and nature of the transaction.

Regarding your first question, your son won't be liable to pay income tax on the gifted amount until he utilizes it, typically in September 2025. This postpones the tax liability until the funds are actually put to use.

Exploring alternative options, such as investing in Long Term Capital Gains (LTCG) or NHAI funds, could potentially offer tax benefits. However, it's crucial to assess the tax implications and investment suitability carefully. While these avenues may provide tax advantages, it's essential to evaluate their risk-return profile and alignment with your financial goals.

Consulting a Certified Financial Planner can provide clarity on the tax implications and help you make informed decisions aligned with your financial objectives. Remember, every financial choice carries its own set of considerations, and seeking professional guidance can illuminate the path towards wise financial stewardship.

Ans: Dear Anonymous,
Heartbreaks can show up in the body as aches and pains; but do visit the doctor to rule out any issue causing the pain in your chest.
I would suggest 'taking a break' from your relationship to process what has gone on...being cheated upon is not easy to digest and you need the time to understand what has happened.
Yes, loss of trust can be very difficult to repair but whether you want to forgive her or not, trust her again or not are things to be dealt with as you go into this 'break mode' as it will allow the anger to heighten, simmer and then dull down while the importance of this person in your life will arise where you can then ask yourself if you wish to continue this relationship or you actually can do away with it.
I do feel that you will benefit from working with a professional on this as your mind state can interfere in the process of reflection and healing. So, do consider that as well...
I will not say that Time Heals, but Time gives you an opportunity to reflect and learn...

All the best!

Relationship
I (30M) am looking for suitable match through Arranged Marriage Platforms. Recently, I had connected with a Lady (25F) who seemed to tick all the Boxes, which I preferred in a Life Partner & she seemed to like me too, we both were getting along quite well through chatting & phone calls. When we met, in person for the first time, I POLITELY asked her what's her BODY COUNT (while mentioning that my Body Count is Zero, as I am VIRGIN). Immediately, she lost her Temper, started abusing me & splashed her Drink all over my Face & Clothes, she was physically assaulting me, when the waiters intervened & calmed her down. I was feeling Humiliated in Public. She threatened that she would Report me to the Police for 'SEXUAL HARASSMENT'. Realising that she could ruin my Life, I apologised to her earnestly & made Peace. Needless to say, she ended all contact with me. But, this incident has left me emotionally bruised. Did I do anything Wrong by asking my prospective Life Partner about her Sexual History? Don't I have the Right to know about this aspect of the Woman, I'd be Marrying? Was she right in taking offence at my Question? Can her Reaction be Justified? Does my Question warrant a Criminal Case against me (something as Heinous as 'Sexual Harassment')? How do I handle such situations in the Future? Should I avoid asking, any other prospects, in the future m, such sensitive personal Questions? What do I do, in case, any other Lady, behaves aggressively with me? Would it be better, if I Record our entire conversation, secretly, using a Bodycam, as a Pro-Active measure, to prove my Innocence & defend myself against Criminal Proceedings? Would it be Legal, to Record our Conversation, without her Knowledge or Consent? Or shall I seek her Consent & Proceed cautiously? Please Advise me, how to handle such sensitive situations, in the Future.
Ans: Dear Anonymous,
Things have definitely changed in the dating and marriage scene from what it was even 20 or 10 years back...
But hey, I still have my reservations on whether women are comfortable answering very intimate questions...do you not think that a question on body count can be reserved to a future meeting maybe when the two of you show interest in each other and when transparency is vital to further the connection?
Right on Day 1, what is the necessity to jump about and get curious about it? Maybe if someone asked you, you would be okay with it but not everyone or every woman is going to be comfortable with it.
When you pay attention to what the other person wants and likes, there are minimal chances of you slipping up and irking them; where is the question then to take care of legal stuff, recording etc...
Genuinely be there with the other person in a conversation and when the rapport is built, the conversation flows effortlessly and you will start to enjoy it. Start to get curious about who they are as people rather than how many people they have slept with...This should help you!

All the best!
