I am housewife & i want to sell my home worth 60 lac Rs.

I am owner of the property & this home is on Power of Attoreney.

it does not have registry. I live in delhi.

I have only one property, My questions are :

Q.1 Can i divide this property's money ( after selling the home) in 3 parts

1. MY PART 2. MY ELDER SON 3. MY YOUNGER SON

By way of PARTITION DEED "BATWARA" or any other Legal way, as me & my husband are alive?

1. Yes, money distribution requires no deed. You can simply distribute money in a manner you deem fit.

2.sale of property attracts ltcg, you can reduce indexed value of cost of acquisition, expenses incurred in maintaining the property from the sale amount to arrive at income taxable with ltcg. Distribution After sale Will not prevent ltcg incidence.

3. No comments.

dear client...

Since you are just the POA ... you can divide the property as per your choice... and yes you can receive the money 50% as cash and 50% as cheque....but regarding LTCg need to go through the POA whats written there then only better advice can be made... mail me ur poa at [email protected]

As you are simply a Power of Attorney holder - you do not own the property, and therefore you cannot sell the same. First get yourself conveyance (i.e. legal title), then you can do all - what you desire.

You may divide.

There will be tax on sale of property.
