Limitations
-
There are no tax benefits. The term ‘transfer’ includes relinquishment, not gift. Hence, when you are relinquishing property for monetary consideration, it will result in capital gains for the transferor.
-
If the consideration is less than the stamp duty value of the property, the difference between the stamp duty and the consideration will be taxed in the hands of the buyer.
-
If you relinquish it without any consideration, the stamp duty value of the property will be its sales price.

Even though the Maharashtra government has announced that there will be no Stamp Duty applicable on the transfer of land, building, and estate to legal heirs and successors, it is recommended to take the advice of a local lawyer who will guide you after understanding the facts of your matter in detail.
