My husband and his brother jointly invested in a property 20 years back, for an amount of 8 lakhs (equal share between them). However the property was registered only on the brother's name. Now he intends to sell the property for 70 lakhs and share the sale proceeds with my husband equally. What would be the Long Term Capital Gain tax liability on both the brothers after the sale? Can he transfer my husband's share as 'Gift" within blood relation, being his own brother?
Ans: The Long-Term Capital Gain (LTCG) tax liability on the sale of the property will depend on various factors, including the purchase price, sale price, and holding period. Here's how it's calculated:

Determine Cost of Acquisition: The cost of acquisition for your husband's share would be his portion of the original investment, i.e., Rs. 4 lakhs.

Calculate Indexed Cost of Acquisition: Adjust the cost of acquisition for inflation using the Cost Inflation Index (CII) for the relevant financial years. This indexed cost will be used to calculate the LTCG.

Deduct Indexed Cost from Sale Price: Subtract the indexed cost of acquisition from the sale price to determine the LTCG.

Apply LTCG Tax Rate: As per current tax laws, LTCG on the sale of immovable property is taxed at 20% with indexation.

Compute Tax Liability: Calculate the tax payable on the LTCG at the applicable rate of 20%.

Transfer of Share as Gift:

Your husband's brother can transfer your husband's share of the sale proceeds as a gift within the blood relation. However, it's essential to consider the tax implications of such a transfer:

Gift Tax Liability: Gifts received from relatives are generally exempt from tax under the Income Tax Act. Therefore, your husband should not incur any gift tax liability on receiving his share of the sale proceeds from his brother.

Documentation: Ensure proper documentation for the gift transaction, including a gift deed or a written agreement, to establish the transfer of ownership legally.

Avoiding Tax Evasion: While gifting within blood relations is permissible, it's crucial to ensure compliance with tax laws and avoid any suspicion of tax evasion. Proper documentation and transparency are essential to demonstrate the legitimate nature of the transaction.

Consultation with Tax Advisor:

Given the complexity of tax implications and legal requirements, it's advisable to consult with a tax advisor or chartered accountant who can provide personalized guidance based on your specific circumstances and ensure compliance with tax laws.

How many marks is required in neet to get admission in iisc bangalore
Ans: IISc is a premier institute. When planning to join a prestigious institution, it's important not to focus solely on the eligibility criteria. Generally, the minimum eligibility for admission varies between 50-60%. This means that if you have at least 60% marks in the required subjects, you still may not guarantee admission, as many aspirants intend to pursue their studies at the same institute. Consequently, competition can be intense, and some applicants might not secure a place.

Please note that the admission selection process typically involves an entrance exam conducted either by the institute itself or by a testing agency. According to your query, the basic eligibility to pursue an undergraduate program at IISc is 60%, and candidates are also required to appear for the entrance exam.

For your reference, I have extracted this information from the IISc website. If you need any further details, kindly feel free to POOCHO. LIFE CHANGE KARO!

Eligibility criteria
Applicants must be Indian nationals, OCI/PIO/Foreign Nationals to apply for IAT 2025.

The candidates must have passed the Class XII (or equivalent) examination with science stream from any board recognized by the Council of Boards of School Education (COBSE) in India. Foreign Nationals need to upload an equivalence certificate issued by the Association of Indian Universities unless they have passed the Class XII or equivalent level examination from any board recognized by the Council of Boards of School Education (COBSE) in India. The equivalence certificate must be uploaded while submitting the IAT 2025 Application Form under "Please upload copy of document supporting your claim of Foreign National (You'll need to produce original when necessary)".

Candidates should have been born on or after October 01, 2000. Five years of age relaxation is given to SC, ST, and PwD candidates, i.e, these candidates should have been born on or after October 01, 1995. Note that, there is no restriction based on the completion year of Class XII.

Candidates must have taken at least three subjects among Biology, Chemistry, Mathematics and Physics during their Class XII (or equivalent) examination.

Candidates belonging to SC/ST/PwD are required to score a minimum of 55% marks in aggregate or equivalent grade in their Class XII (or equivalent) examination. Candidates belonging to other categories are required to score a minimum of 60% marks in aggregate or equivalent grade in their Class XII (or equivalent) examination.

NOTE:
Candidates belonging to Kashmiri Pandit/Kashmiri Hindu Families (Non-Migrants) may apply for the IAT 2025 as Kashmiri Migrants subject to the fullfillment of other eligibility criteria. These candidates must upload a valid domicile certificate at the time of application under "Kashmiri Migrant Certificate".

Admission to IISERs
Admission to IISERs is exclusively through the IISER Aptitude Test (IAT), which is a computer-based test scheduled on Sunday, May 25, 2025 at 9:00 AM, at various centres across the country.

Performance Criteria in Class XII (or equivalent examination)
Candidates whose Class XII (or equivalent) examination results have not yet been declared can apply for IAT 2025. However, their admission will be subject to fulfilling the minimum eligibility criteria given above.
For candidates who have appeared in the Class XII (or equivalent) examination multiple times (for whatever reasons), the best of the performances in terms of aggregate in a given year will be considered.
If a board gives aggregate marks considering both Class XI and Class XII, then only Class XII (or equivalent) examination marks will be considered. If a board gives aggregate marks considering the results of all three years of a 3-year diploma or courses of equivalent duration, then only the marks scored in the final year will be considered. Similarly, the marks scored in the final two semesters will be considered for boards that follow a semester system.
If a board awards only letter grades without providing an equivalent percentage of marks on the grade-sheet, the candidate should obtain a certificate from the board specifying the equivalent marks and submit it before the deadline of the mark-sheet submission. In case the board does not provide such a certificate, the percentage marks will be assessed as follows:

percentage marks = (CGPA or CPI obtained × 100) / PS,
where PS is the maximum value of the point scale used by the respective board.
Reservation Policy
Reservation policies as mandated by the Govt. of India will apply
Scheduled Caste (SC) - 15% of seats
Scheduled Tribe (ST) - 7.5% of seats
Other Backward Classes belonging to the Non-Creamy Layer (OBC-NCL) - 27% of seats
Persons with Disability (PwD) with at least 40% impairment - 5% of seats (horizontal, within the same category)
Kashmiri Migrants - 3 seats per IISER (supernumerary)
Economically Weaker Section (EWS) - up to 10% (as per Government of India rules)
Note that the EWS/OBC-NCL certificate should be issued on or after April 01, 2025
