Government idea of LTCG Tax simplification is too complicated for Indians

Very few budget announcements in recent past have raised as many queries as the LTCG (Long Term Capital Gains) Tax. After all, it concerns all of us, the common citizens of India, whether they are lower class or middle class. For the rich, it has always been a case of more tax reliefs than burden. Track2Realty is regularly getting queries with the underlying worry as to whether the LTCG Amendment makes the tax computation simpler or more complicated.

How to make housing more affordable?

No one has got a clear answer to the core of the problems and every industry  stakeholder has his own point of view. However, the economies of scale suggests it definitely helps the developers to undertake cost-effective measures since material procurement happens at a group level. This gives large developers an advantage over other smaller developers and projects. Also, the duration of construction has an impact on the cost. The developers must ensure the completion of projects on time, which could help us sell the properties at a faster pace and keep the cost under control.
