Property purchased in the year 1998 for rs.150000, Sale Agreement made in year 2005 for Rs. 440000, and paid in year 2005, but sale deed done in year 2024, what is the tax liability now?

Ans: Kindly clarify following points, so that I may be in a position to respond your correctly :
01. Payment of Rs.4.40 (L) received in 2004 was in cash or through banking channels ? Whether the same was declared in your ITR for the same period ?
02. What is the amount for which Sale Deed was registered in 2024 & its date ?
03. Whether any further payment was received in 2024 ?
04. Please note that officially you have sold the property in 2024 (the year in which sale deed was registered). LTCG shall be worked accordingly. Payment received in 2005, may be treated as advance payment against the sale of property. Your tax liability shall be for the F/Y 2024-25 (assuming that sale was registered after 01.04.2024).
Most welcome for any further clarifications. Thanks.

Dating, Relationships Expert - Answered on Jun 19, 2025

Relationship
Why do men ghost after sex? I met this amazing guy on Hinge. He was 27, well-mannered, and worked in a data firm in Mumbai. We spoke daily for three months and had amazing chemistry. From music to food, we discussed everything under the sun. We went on a couple of dates to get to know each other. When we got comfortable, we got intimate and eventually had consensual s** at his friend's house party. One week after we got intimate, he just vanished. No replies, no calls. It was my first time, so I kept wondering if I had done something wrong to upset him. My friend says it could be post-intimacy guilt. But I feel embarrassed, ashamed. I can't shake off the shame. Did I move too fast? Is this how dating works now? How can I go back to feeling normal again?
Ans: Dear Anonymous,
I am really sorry you are going through this. What happened is just as confusing as it is hurtful. Let’s get one thing straight, you did nothing wrong. You are not at fault here. Nothing you could’ve done or said should or could cause this reaction.
Coming to your first question, it is very difficult to answer it without generalizing all men. But some of the most reasons for this could be:
He got what he wanted. It sounds crass but in most cases, this is the truth. He had no intentions of being more than just that.
He might be avoiding responsibility. He didn’t want more, and the mature thing would have been to sit down and have that discussion with you. But, maturity isn’t easy and he chose the easy route, that is to ghost. His decision to disappear is a reflection of his nature, not yours.
Coming to what your friend said, it could be that too, but the chances are slim. Some men do feel overwhelmed but disappearing for over a week is a stretch. Again, it’s his unreadiness to feel so many emotions, not yours.
Now, I want to gently nudge you towards one thing: you said you feel ashamed. Shame creeps in when you hold yourself accountable for someone else’s actions. And also due to societal prejudice. Keep both aside, and you have nothing to be ashamed of. Did you move too fast? To be honest, there is no fast or slow in these things. There’s no set timeline. You did what you felt was right in the moment. And you were ready to step up, but he went MIA. The entire unfortunate turnout is not because of your pace but his lack of respect. Even if he comes up with a good enough reason for this disappearing act, I still want you to remember that not even for a second, you had anything to create this situation.


I hope this helps.
