Therefore, under the definition of section\u00a02(42A)\u00a0of the\u00a0Income-tax Act, 1961\u00a0the underlying asset held by the assessee was land which was held for more than 36 months and the title or treatment given by the assessee in the books of account was immaterial so far the holding period of this asset was concerned. The assessee had converted his stock-in-trade into a capital asset and sold the asset after its conversion. The gains arising therefrom were required to be taxed as long-term capital gains and not as business income. Since the assessee had reconverted the stock-in-trade into capital asset as on April 1, 2010, there was no bar in law for reconversion of the business asset into a capital asset and vice versa. Since the asset sold had been considered as capital asset in the books of account, when the capital asset was sold, the gains therefrom were assessable as long-term capital gains. Consequently, the assessee would be entitled to set off brought forward long-term capital loss of Rs. 16,40,564. The Assessing Officer was directed to allow deduction on account of indexation after verification of records.(<span style=\"background: white\"> AY.2011-12<\/span>)<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>S.45: Capital gains \u2014 Long-term capital gains \u2014Land held for more than thirty-six months \u2014Treatment given in books of  account immaterial \u2014Converting Stock-in-trade into capital asset-Gains assessable as long-term capital gains and not business income \u2014 Entitled to set off gains against brought forward long-term capital loss \u2014Entitled to indexation [ S.2(42A), 74  ] <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[21],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-14176","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-income-tax-act"],"acf":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p9S2Rw-3GE","jetpack-related-posts":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/itatonline.org\/digest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14176","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/itatonline.org\/digest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/itatonline.org\/digest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itatonline.org\/digest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itatonline.org\/digest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=14176"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/itatonline.org\/digest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14176\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":14177,"href":"https:\/\/itatonline.org\/digest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14176\/revisions\/14177"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/itatonline.org\/digest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=14176"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itatonline.org\/digest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=14176"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itatonline.org\/digest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=14176"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
