As per fact stated by you, the property purchased by you in 2008 and sold by you in 2012 shall be eligible for taxation at concessional/fixed rate of 20% as Long Term Capital Gains. LTCG has to be calculated as per procedure laid down in the Act i.e. (Sales Consideration-Indexed Cost of Acquistion) = LTCG.

2. In case you do not own any other Residential Property, you are eligible for deduction on investments made in the New Asset. Any amount paid either one year before or two year after for acquistion of such new asset qualifies for Deduction.

As per yours Data

2000000 *780/551 =2831216

100000*780/632 =123418

25000*780/711 = 27426

total of above is 2982060  

4100000-2982060 =1117940

tax is on 1117940*20/100 = 223588/-

U have to invest Rs 1117940 / 12 lakh in another property to save the tax .

I have inherited land through partition after my father's death. My brother was acting as power agent(GPA) and signed a sale agreement on my behalf last year with a buyer. The buyer(developer) could not complete the payments as agreed on initial sale agreement and finally managed to pay the agreed amount a bit later.

Meanwhile, the guideline price of the land has gone up. I am happy for him to transfer the ownership through registered sale deed. Because of guideline price increase, he is requesting me to issus GPA in favour of him - to develop & sell etc.

With GPA, he would be able get appropriate approval and sell the land in blocks/plots to prospective buyers. I am sure this person (holding my GPA), would be required to sell the land at least at guideline prices/above. (This is many folds higher than what we agreed on Sales Agreement). Would GPA is responsible for whatever he gains from that stage onwards - in terms of capital gains?

My question is, when he is going to sell for four to five fold mor prices than at the time of SA, this is a significant amount than what I received. When such a sale is completed by GPA, whether I will be liable for overall sale/gain capital gain tax or GPA is liable for Capital Gains Tax?

I need this clarification before I sign/appoint him as GPA.

I would appreciate your help.
