@hayat Akbar may I please get a response regarding my above query
A house of 4 marla transferred through inherent mutation on 30 sep 2024 among 5 sisters and one brother. Now they are selling it on Oct 2025. Among owners 3 are filers and 3 non filers. How the Capital Gain Tax and Advanced Tax applied among all sellers?
Capital gains are not appied on inheretence.
I have been allotted a plot by my department. Please tell me how I shall mention this in my wealth statement while filing the IT return. As I have not paid any cost so should I show it’s cost as “0” or what? and if I have to mention it’s cost as per FMV etc, then how I will adjust it in “reconciliation of net assets” because actually I have not paid for it.
How capital gain tax will be calculated if I sell this plot in future.
To ensure accurate reporting and calculation, it is highly recommended to confirm the specific tax treatment of the plot’s allotment by your department at the time of acquisition, especially whether it was considered a taxable perquisite or exempt income. This will directly influence the “cost” for capital gains purposes and declaration.

Can you quote the authority for this rule / clause cz we have just sold out inherited property to distribute shares and facing same issue whether to file tax or exempted.
I have sold inherited immovable property of Rs.2500,000 on Jan 2025, against which a tax u/s 236c was paid of Rs.24590 for amount 819,672. Now how can I show it in income tax return and is there any tax like CGT etc to be paid.
You can disclose it as tax paid under section 236c.
CGT depends on the holding period. In case of inheretence the holding period will be from the date when said property was transferred on your name.
No Gain Tax as property acquired in 2014
What about the gain on gold?
Is this also subject to indexation like immovable property.
