Section 50C IT Act | Consideration Deemed Realized on Account Payee Cheque Deposit, Not Sale Deed Execution, for Capital Gains: ITAT Jabalpur
ITAT Jabalpur rules that for capital gains computation under Section 50C, the consideration is deemed received on the date the account payee cheque is deposited into the seller’s account, not on the date of sale deed execution. This clarifies the timing of income recognition for sellers who receive part payment via crossed cheques, impacting how indexed cost and capital gains are calculated in delayed property transactions.
