Questions
Will the buyer deduct tax on the full sale price?
In many cases, yes, unless you obtain a lower deduction certificate from the tax department before the sale. That is why it is worth planning early.
Can you handle the legal side of the sale?
No. Registration, title and agreements are handled by a lawyer. We handle the tax side and work with your lawyer.
What we do and do not do. We handle tax, compliance and financial reporting. Property registration and legal documents involve a lawyer, and Form 15CB must be issued by a practising Chartered Accountant. Where a matter needs one of these, we coordinate with them. We do not guarantee tax savings or refunds.
