Real Estate Capital Gains Planning.
Selling or buying property raises capital gains, stamp duty value and TDS questions that are easier to plan before the deal than after it. We advise individuals, families and companies on the income-tax effect of a property sale or purchase, the reinvestment exemptions available and the compliance on both sides. This service covers income-tax planning, not municipal property tax.
Typically 3–5 working days from receiving documents; inherited property, several co-owners or older holdings take longer.

Transaction compliance
We set out the buyer's TDS obligations and the documents each side needs.

Return reporting
We report the gain and exemptions correctly in the income-tax return.

- When you pay — upfront, in stages or on completion — is agreed in writing with the fee.
