Short-term Capital Asset: ‘Short-term Capital Asset’ means a capital asset held by assessee for not more than 36 months immediately preceding the date of its transfer. However, in case of -

These assets shall (a) Equity or Preference Shares in a company (listed or unlisted) be treated as short (b) Other securities listed in recognized stock exchange in India (listed) term capital assets (c) Units of UTI or Units of mutual fund (listed or unlisted) if they are held (d) Zero Coupon Bonds (listed or unlisted) for not more than

12 months immediately preceding the date of transfer

Note: 1. An asset held exactly for 36 months or 12 months, as the case may be, will also be a

short-term capital asst. For computing the period of 36 months or 12 months, as the case may be, the date on which the asset was acquired is to be included while the date on which the asset is transferred is to be excluded.

2. In case of unlisted debentures they become long term if held for more than 36 months before the date of transfer.

Long-term Capital Asset: Any capital asset other than a short-term capital asset is a long-term capital asset. In other words, a capital asset held for more than 36 months (12 months in case of specified assets given in table above) shall be a long term capital asset

Types of Capital GainsThe tax incidence under the head ‘Capital Gains’ depends upon whether the capital gain is short term or long term. Long Term capital gain is generally taxable at a lower rate.If the asset transferred is a short term capital asset, capital gain will be short term capital gain. Conversely, long term capital gain arises on transfer of a long term capital asset.Transfer of Capital Asset:Transfer, in relation to capital asset, includes –a. sale, exchange or relinquishment of the assetb. extinguishment of any rights thereinc. compulsory acquisition thereof under any lawd. maturity or redemption of zero coupon bonde.

Identify whether the following transactions are transfer for the purpose of Capital Gain:1. A house property is purchased by a HUF in 1950 for Rs.40,000. It is given to one of the

family members in 2013-14 at the time of partition of the family.2. Y purchases gold in 1974 for Rs.10,000. In 2013-14 it is gifted to his son at the time of

his marriage.3. Z purchases 10 Convertible Debentures in 1986 which are converted into 100 shares in

5. What if the capital asset is transferred as a stock in trade?Computation of Capital Gains:

Full Value of Consideration:Full value of consideration means & includes the whole/complete sale price or exchange value or compensation including enhanced compensation received in respect of capital asset in transfer. The following points are important to note in relation to full value of consideration. The consideration may be in cash or kind. The consideration received in kind is valued at its fair market value. It may be received or receivable. The consideration must be actual irrespective of its adequacy.

Expenses on Transfer:Expenditure incurred wholly and exclusively for transfer of capital asset is called expenditure on transfer. It is fully deductible from the full value of consideration while calculating the capital gain.

Examples of expenditure on transfer are the commission or brokerage paid by seller, any fees like registration fees, and cost of stamp papers etc., travelling expenses, and litigation expenses incurred for transferring the capital assets are expenditure on transfer. Note: Expenditure incurred by buyer at the time of buying the capital assets like brokerage, commission, registration fees, cost of stamp paper etc. are to be added in the cost of acquisition before indexation.

Cost of Acquisition:Cost of Acquisition (COA) means any capital expense at the time of acquiring capital asset under transfer, i.e., to include the purchase price, expenses incurred up to acquiring date in the form of registration, storage etc. expenses incurred on completing transfer. In other words, cost of acquisition of an asset is the value for which it was acquired by the assessee. Expenses of capital nature for completing or acquiring the title are included in the cost of acquisition. Cases on Cost of Acquisition:1. Interest on Loan taken to acquire the asset:

A lady taxpayer had raised a loan from her mother in law for acquiring a land. When she sold the land she included the amount paid towards interest on loan in the

actual cost and disclosed the remaining amount as capital gain on sale of land. Cost incurred for acquiring the capital asset vs expenditure for retaining or

maintaining the capital asset Amount of loan paid to the vendor and interest paid to a different person does it make

a difference from the point of view of the taxpayer? Does it make a difference if interest is paid on the date of purchase or subsequently?

2. Sum paid to clear the mortgage on a property sold: On 1.6.2009, X took a loan of Rs.5 lakh by mortgaging his house property. X could

not repay the loan during his lifetime and after his death on 2.7.2011, the property (with mortgage) is transferred to Mrs. X. Mrs. X transfers the property on 2.5.2013 and before transfer, a sum of Rs.7.2 lakhs is paid to clear of the mortgage.

Will Rs.7.2 lakhs be treated as a COA in the hands of Mrs.X? What if the loan was in the name of Mrs.X? (repayment of loan)

Different Types of Cost of Acquisition:1. Cost of acquisition to the previous owner: The cost to the previous owner is deemed to

be the cost of acquisition in cases where capital asset became the property of assessee under any of the following modes:

i. Acquisition of property on distribution of assets on the total or partial partition of a HUF

ii. Acquisition of property under a gift or williii. Acquisition of property by succession or inheritanceiv. Acquisition of property on any distribution of assets on the liquidation of a companyv. Acquisition of property on any transfer by a wholly owned Indian subsidiary company

from its holding companyvi. Acquisition of property on any transfer by an Indian holding company from its wholly

owned subsidiary company

Where the previous owner has acquired the property in the aforesaid manner, the previous owner of the property means the last previous owner who acquired the property by means other than those discussed above.

Period of holding of the previous owner will be taken into consideration to find out whether the capital asset is short term or long term.

Solve the following:1. X (HUF) acquires a residential house at Delhi, for Rs.2,10,000 on 1.4.2011. The

family undergoes complete partition on 1.11.2011 and the residential house is allotted to Y, a member of the family. Y sells the house on 15.3.2014 for Rs.6,90,000. Determine the capital gain in the hands of X (HUF) and Y.

2. X purchases debentures in A Ltd. On 1.1.2010 for Rs.20,000. He gifts these debentures to his friend Y, on 10.6.2010 (fair market value on 10.6.2010: Rs.33,000). Y dies on 13.3.2011 and as per his will debentures are transferred to his son Z ( fair market value on 13.3.2011: Rs.40,000). Z sells debentures on 10.11.2013 for Rs.86,000. Determine the amount of capital gain arising to X, Y and Z. Debentures are unlisted.

2. Cost of Acquisition being the fair market value as on 1.4.1981:The assessee has an option to take either the actual cost of the capital asset or the fair market value of the asset as on 1.4.1981 as the cost of acquisition in the following cases:

i. Where the capital asset is acquired by the assessee before 1.4.1981ii. Where the capital asset is acquired by the assessee by any mode applicable in case of

a previous owner and the capital asset has been acquired by the previous owner before 1.4.1981.

The option is not available in case of depreciable assets.

3. Cost of Acquisition in case of Depreciable Assets:The following two situations exist in case of depreciable assets for the purpose of calculating Capital Gains:

i. When the W.D.V. of the block of assets is zero on the last day of the previous yearii. When the block of assets is empty on the last day of the previous year

Capital Gain in both the above cases can be calculated as follows:Sale consideration of depreciable assets in a block which are transferredLess: Cost of Acquisition(i) Expenses on transfer(ii) W.D.V. of the block of assets at the beginning of the previous year(iii)Actual cost of assets falling in the same block acquired during the year.

In both the cases capital gain /loss is a SHORT TERM CAPITAL GAIN /LOSS

When W.D.V. is Zero:X owns the following assets on 1.4.2013 ( Rate of Depreciation 15%)

Assets W.D.V. on 1.4.2013 Date of AcquisitionPlant A 3,00,000 1.4.1975Plant B 2,00,000 10.5.1974Plant C 5,00,000 13.3.1987

4. Cost of Acquisition in case of Bonus Shares:Situation ProvisionCost of Acquisition of bonus shares allotted before 1.4.1981

Fair Market Value as on 1.4.1981 is taken as cost of acquisition

Cost of Acquisition of bonus shares allotted on or after 1.4.1981

Cost of acquisition is taken as zero

Period of Holding of Bonus shares The period of holding shall be determined from the date of allotment of bonus shares

5. Cost of Acquisition in case of Right Shares:Different Situations Cost of AcquisitionOriginal shares Actual amount paid for acquiring sharesRights entitlement NILRight shares Actual amount paid for acquiring assetRight shares purchased by a person in whose favour rights entitlement has been renounced

Purchase price paid to renouncer of rights entitlement plus amount paid to the company which has allotted right shares

Solve the following: X holds 1,000 equity shares in A Ltd. since 1978 (cost of acquisition: Rs.10,000, fair

market value on 1.4.1981: Rs.14,000) A Ltd. offers 2,000 right shares of Rs.10 each to X on 1.5.2013 at a premium of Rs.50. X subscribes for 800 right shares and

7

renounces 1,200 shares in favour of C by transferring the rights entitlement for a consideration of Rs.4,800. X sells 1,800 shares in A Ltd. on 30.3.2014 @ Rs.120 per share.

What if C transfers 1,100 shares @Rs.79 per share on 29.3.2014. CII for 2013-14:939, 1981-82:100

Cost of Improvement:Cost of improvement is the capital expenditure incurred by an assessee in making any additions/ improvement to the capital asset. It includes any expenditure incurred to increase the value of capital asset.

Cost of Improvement incurred before 1.4.1981:Any cost of improvement incurred before 1.4.1981 is not taken into consideration for calculating capital gain chargeable to tax. In other words any cost of improvement incurred on or after 1.4.1981 either by the current owner or the previous owner (if applicable) will be considered for the purpose of calculating capital gains.

Indexed Cost of Acquisition and Indexed Cost of Improvement:Indexed cost of acquisition/ improvement is the amount which bears to the cost of acquisition / improvement the same proportion as Cost Inflation Index for the year in which asset is transferred bears to the Cost Inflation Index for the first year in which asset was held by the assessee/ in which improvement took place.

Solve the following:1. X purchases a house property for Rs.76,000 on 30.6. 1967. The following expenses
