It is not a wrong Platform in any way, as suggested by Dr. J.C.Vashista.
There are many Advocates in this LCI itself who practice Tax Laws and in a position to offer solution to tax issues.
If you have become the owner of the Flat in the year 2017, you have to hold the property at least for a minimum period of 2 years, only then you will be in a position to take advantage of long term capital gains tax and the attendant provisions to save the capital gains tax by buying new property. Therefore, you have to hold the property for a period of minimum 24 months from the date of getting possession.
