These proposed tax on Real Estate will only work, if Govt declares a war on large cash payments. Ban transfer of ownership unless payment is made in a documented way, like via a Bank RTGS, payorder, cheques. Right now, FBR values are well below market value. In developed countries, local city governments regularly appraise real estate valuations. FBR wealth statements of even retired civil servants, politicians show DHA Phase 8 plots worth 57,000,000+ under declared at PKR 400,000-PKR 1,000,000. Bulk of the payment is made via cash, with large note denominations (5K) facilitating tax evasion. This untaxed capital is lost to Hawala Hundi, purchase of foreign currency from the black market, gold, other tangible hard assets like jewelry studded Rolex.

This Budget is full of Mystery plus Historical in The view of Capital Gain taxation Historic is that !! It abolished the old indexation formula for immovable property, gold That we are doing from CA Intermediate till 22 July 2024 And From now onwards it will be more like Purchase and sale of goods with further aquisition cost Mysterious is that !! It has put all capital asset at par and charges tax based on revenue area only. That is, it reduce immovable property and gold taxes rate by 7.5 percent without indexation and reduce holding period to 24 month While in case of listed securities it increases taxes by 2.5 percent in case of LTCG and 5 percent in case of STCG So, overall you will be see that there is no change in taxation but a earning the revenue from more growing market. And, also there may be chance that, Immovable property and gold rates will further reduce to cover hike that has been seen, from last 5 to 7 years in real state market and gold Be in touch to know more #incometax #icai

How much gold can you keep at home? CBDT (2016) allows unlimited gold holding if source of investment/inheritance can be proved. However, maximum quantities without invoice are: - Married women: 500gms - Unmarried women: 250gms - Men: 100gms If you can't explain the source of gold above these limits, it may be seized and taxed at 78% (plus a 10% penalty). If the taxpayer fails to provide an explanation, then the gold will be seized under section 132 and it will be taxable u/s 69B read with section 115BBE of the Income Tax Act. (Note: These limits are applicable only if you can't prove the source of gold. If you have proof, you can hold more gold)

Ram bought a property in 2000 for 1.00 Cr. (rich man!). Sham bought a property next door in 2002 for 1.12 Cr. (richer man!). Imagine they both sold their property for 5.00 Cr. after the budget 2024 rules became applicable. Ram made a capital gain of 5.00 - 4.05 = 0.95 Cr. (considering 6% inflation/indexation). Sham made a capital gain of 5.00 - 1.12 = 3.88 Cr. (no inflation/indexation) Ram has to pay 20% tax (ouch!) and Sham has to pay 12.5% tax (Love you #nirmalatai) . Ram has to pay 0.19 Cr. in tax due to indexation benefit and Sham has to pay 0.49 Cr. in tax due to no indexation even with lower tax rate. Ram has 4.81 Cr. in hand after the sale and Sham has 4.51 Cr. Ram is happy. Sham is happier as he has contributed more to #ViksitBharat. Who would you like to be? Ram or Sham?

The U.S. continues to be a popular place for foreign investment in real estate. According to a 2023 study conducted by the National Association of REALTORS® (NAR), foreign buyers purchased over $50 billion worth of U.S. homes from April 2022 through March 2023. Eventually, foreign property owners will become sellers, and when that time comes, the transaction may be subject to income taxes and withholdings under the Foreign Investment in Real Property Tax Act of 1980 (FIRPTA). Here is some more information to help understand FIRPTA Rules.
