Ans: 01. Long Term Capital Loss can be carried forward for 8 years & adjusted against LTCG during this period. Since there is no mention of date of Long Term Capital Loss, I can't confirm its adjustment during f/y 2023-24. Kindly watch the time line.
Most welcome for any further clarifications. Thanks.

Dear Sir...Can the LTC Loss of Rs.3.5Lacs incurred against Flat Sale ( after 12Yrs) in May2023 can be adjusted against LTC Gains of Rs.4Lacs earned from Redemption of Eq.Shares & Mutual Funds ( after 5Yrs.) In June2023..and the Balane of Rs.50Thousand of LTC Gains be Exempted upto 01Lac. Also any Limit of upto 02Lac LTC Loss only can be adjusted against 4L LTC Gains in this FY 2023-24 and the Balance of 1.5L LTC Loss to be carried ovet in subsequent year which can be adjusted ONLY against LTC Gains earned from Property in that Year. Pl advise & Clarify...Thanks. Sanjiv Kumar.
Ans: Dear Sanjiv,

Based on the information available, it appears that you can indeed adjust your Long Term Capital (LTC) loss against LTC gains in the same financial year.

In your case, the LTC loss of Rs. 3.5 Lacs from the sale of a flat can be adjusted against the LTC gain of Rs. 4 Lacs from the redemption of equity shares and mutual funds. This leaves you with a balance LTC gain of Rs. 50,000.

As per the Income Tax Act, LTC gains up to Rs. 1 Lac are exempt from tax. Therefore, your balance LTC gain of Rs. 50,000 should be exempt.

Regarding the limit of LTC loss adjustment, there doesn't appear to be a specific limit of Rs. 2 Lacs for adjusting LTC loss against LTC gains. However, any unadjusted LTC loss can be carried forward to subsequent years and set off against future LTC gains.

Please note that this is a general interpretation based on the available information. For a more accurate understanding of your tax liability, I would recommend consulting with a tax professional or a chartered accountant who can provide advice based on a comprehensive understanding of your financial situation.

I hope this helps!

Me married from last 5years. But from last 10months me and my wife having disputes. Any reason
Ans: One possibility is communication breakdown. Over time, couples may fall into patterns where they no longer communicate as openly or effectively as they once did. Misunderstandings, unmet expectations, or unspoken feelings can lead to tension and disputes. It’s important to reflect on whether you both are expressing your thoughts and emotions clearly and listening to each other with empathy.

Another potential factor could be unmet needs or changes in individual priorities. As people grow and evolve, their needs, desires, and priorities may shift. If these changes are not acknowledged or discussed, it can create friction. Consider whether you or your wife feel that certain emotional, physical, or practical needs are not being met.

Stress from external factors, such as work, finances, or family issues, can also spill over into the relationship. If either of you is experiencing significant stress, it might contribute to increased irritability or conflict. Identifying these stressors and finding ways to manage them together can be helpful.

Changes in intimacy or connection can also lead to disputes. Emotional or physical intimacy might wane due to various reasons, such as busy schedules, health issues, or unresolved conflicts. It’s important to nurture the bond and find ways to reconnect.

Lastly, unresolved past issues can resurface and cause ongoing disputes. If there are lingering resentments or unresolved conflicts, they might continue to affect the relationship. It’s crucial to address these issues constructively, possibly with the help of a couples counselor if needed.

Reflecting on these areas and having open, honest conversations with your wife can help you both understand the root causes of your disputes. Working together to rebuild communication, connection, and trust can guide you toward a healthier, more harmonious relationship.

Im married from last 3 months and we are from very conservative family. My wife and i never met before marriage and after marriage i asked her she had relationship before marriage but she denied. But after 3 months i received a call from her ex that she had relationship with him he had physical relationship with her atleast for 5 years straight and she had 2 bf before him too what should i do now with this information?
Ans: allow yourself to process your feelings. It's normal to feel a range of emotions—shock, hurt, confusion, or even betrayal. Give yourself the space to sit with these emotions without rushing to any immediate decisions or confrontations.

Consider the source of this information. An ex-partner might have motives that are not aligned with the best interests of your marriage. It's crucial to evaluate the credibility of the information and not act solely on a third-party account.

Open, honest communication with your wife is key. Instead of approaching the conversation with accusations, try to express your feelings and concerns calmly. Let her share her perspective and feelings. This conversation is not just about the past, but about building trust and understanding in your relationship moving forward.

Reflect on the importance of your wife's past in the context of your marriage. Everyone has a history, and it's essential to consider how much weight you want to place on past relationships versus the present and future you are building together. Focus on your current connection, values, and shared goals.

If this information continues to weigh heavily on you, consider seeking professional support. A couples counselor can provide a safe space to explore these feelings and help you both navigate this challenge. Counseling can also strengthen your communication, trust, and emotional intimacy.

Ultimately, the decision on how to move forward lies with you both. Reflect on the foundation of your relationship, your shared values, and your vision for the future. It's about understanding, forgiveness, and whether you both are committed to growing together despite the challenges.
