Filed a loss this year? Still file your ITR.

Even if you have incurred a loss, filing your ITR can be important to carry forward eligible losses and potentially set them off against eligible future income, subject to applicable tax rules and filing timelines.

Bluman Advantage

Holding-period and indexation modelling, exemption route comparison (54/54EC/54F), harvesting analysis and reinvestment timeline.

Service overview

What this service is

Capital gains tax planning is advice taken before you sell an asset, so the timing and structure of the sale reduce tax legally. It is for people planning to sell property, shares or mutual fund holdings and for investors considering loss harvesting. Bluman models the holding period and indexation, compares exemption routes under Sections 54, 54EC and 54F, analyses harvesting options and lays out a reinvestment timeline.

Who needs it

Anyone planning to sell property, shares or another capital asset, and wanting to understand the tax outcome and the exemption routes before signing, rather than after.

What Bluman will do

  • Compute the expected gain on the proposed transaction, with holding period, indexation where available and permitted transfer costs.
  • Compare exemption routes open to you on reinvestment, including their conditions, lock-in periods and investment limits.
  • Explain the capital gains account scheme where reinvestment will not be completed before the return due date.
  • Model timing alternatives, such as shifting a sale across the financial year boundary, and quantify the difference.
  • Set out the advance tax impact and the documentation to preserve for the eventual return.

Key deliverables

  • Gain computation with scenarios
  • Exemption comparison with conditions and deadlines
  • Documentation checklist and advance tax note

Should be done before the transaction is signed; most exemption routes cannot be created retrospectively.

  • · Government fees, portal charges and applicable taxes are billed at actuals.
  • · Timelines start once complete documents and information are received.
  • · Outcomes that depend on a government authority cannot be guaranteed, but every step is tracked and communicated.

Documents required

  • Purchase documents with dates and cost, and improvement evidence
  • Proposed sale terms or draft agreement
  • Stamp duty valuation, for property
  • Details of intended reinvestment

What we need from you

  • Share the actual proposed terms, not indicative ones.
  • Confirm reinvestment intent honestly — exemptions are withdrawn if conditions are breached later.

Important conditions

  • Valuation reports and legal due diligence on the property are arranged separately.
  • Actual filing of the return is a separate service.

What is an Open Order?

Even after a service is marked Completed, your order stays open for follow-up. You can reopen the same ticket for clarifications or related queries within the access window of your plan — the original order details, documents and full history are retained, and no duplicate order is created.

  • · Essential — 15 days of post-completion access
  • · Priority — 30 days of post-completion access
  • · Concierge — 60 days of post-completion access
  • · Reopening is subject to the scope of the original service.

Frequently asked questions

When should I take this advice?

Before the sale is executed. Most exemption and timing options close once the transaction is done.

Is the return filing included?

No. This is planning work. Capital Gains ITR Filing is a separate service for reporting the transaction afterwards.
