Hi Tax Experts,
My NRI client purchased flat in 1991

2) Can he avoid the Capital Gains by purchasing another flat?
3) Is is it required that the new flat be purchased after the selling of the previous property to avoid Tax?
4) What documents required to avoid TDS on selling property.
5) Is is mandatory for Buyer to deduct TDS from Consideration Value
Tax Experts your advice is higly solicited.
Thanks in Advance
