ITAT Grants Capital Gains Tax Relief in Redeveloped Property Cases in Mumbai and Delhi
Two Income Tax Appellate Tribunal (ITAT) rulings provided relief to homeowners involved in property redevelopment disputes over capital gains tax exemptions. In Mumbai, a homeowner who sold a redeveloped flat for Rs 1.95 crore successfully claimed long-term capital gains exemption under Section 54F, despite initial tax notices. Separately, in Delhi, the ITAT allowed a taxpayer to claim exemptions on multiple floors of a redeveloped inherited property and ordered a revised capital gains calculation based on a registered valuer's report.
