This query is : Resolved
If I sell a property (ownership more than 5 years), in which I am the sole owner, and simultaneously use the proceeds to buy a property of double the value jointly with a relative (both of us having 50% ownership in sale deed), then does it qualify in my case for exemption of Capital gains tax on sale of property ?

To the extent of interest in the property purchased, you will be eligible to claim tax benefits under IT Act.
