Amendment to section 55 advances the statutory cut-off date used to compute cost of acquisition and cost of improvement for long-term capital assets: where an asset was acquired before the new cut-off date, its cost of acquisition is to be treated as the asset's value on that cut-off date and cost of improvement is recognised only if incurred after that date, with fair market value at the cut-off date available as the basis. The amendment is effective from 1st April, 2018 and applies to the assessment year 2018-2019 onwards.

Section 45 is amended by inserting section 45(5A) to tax capital gains of individuals and HUFs from transfers of land or building under specified agreements in the previous year when the competent authority issues the project completion certificate; the stamp duty value of the assessee's share on that date, increased by any cash consideration, is deemed the full value of consideration.
