Hi, can some one please advise if I can transfer my mutual fund units to my wife as alimony payment without any tax consequences?
I have investment in debt fund and equity fund which are not 36 months or 12 month old respective, so If I liquidate the units I would have to pay short term capital gain and exit load which would be a substantial amount, can some one pls advise if there is a way to avoid redemption by transferring these units to her demat account?
I also read something about opening a trust could be another way to transfer the assets for a particular purpose, can someone can advise about the feasibility of using a trust for payment of alimony? Thanks
K.a.Experts,
I am appearing in person in Bombay High court as Plaintiff. My suit against my employer company for salary and victimisation is in final stage of hearing. I am cross examining a witness who is deposing on behalf of defendants without written authority from them. He is an employee of one of the defendant companies against whom I have this matter but this witness does not have any written authority from either of the defendant company to depose on their behalf. Defendants companies' Advocates have just planted this witness.
Please go through the ist day cross examination of this witness by me, and advice me what should be my next step.
Shall I cross examine him further or discard his deposition. Please tell me what the law says to:,
If I discard deposition of this witness on the basis of not having authority and do not cross examine him further,
then what about his affidavit of evidence which he has filed under oath denying all my contentions in the Suit ?
Will his Affidavit be also automatically discarded by court under law ?
It should not happen that the court takes his submissions in his affidavit on face value, and deny reliefs to me since I have not cross examined him ?
Regards
Capt Sukhdev Singh

Dear Sirs
In a case, in a road accident X, his wife and 2 daughters died, 2 sons survived.
I represent the case on behalf of insurance company and I want say that while calculating compensation due to death of Mr X, the entire compensation amount, as calculated ordinarily, should be computed but as 3 dependants also died so the remaining sons should be entitle to only 1/5 each of entire computed amount.
Please guide me if I am right?
I will be much obliged if you suggest any citation in favour of me or against me.
Obliged.
Plaintiff initiated suit is going to be dismissed by the court shortly because plaintiff not coming with evidence. he is telling that if i do not pay the demanded amount based on forged agreement of sale, he is threatening that he will go for appeal. the matter is right now with sr. civil judge and once the case has been dismissed, where the plaitiff will make appeal. he wants to prolong the litigation. whether can i pay the amount or continue the litigation, in case he files appeal. the plaintiff entered the court with unclean hands with forged agreement of sale. what is your suggestion.
