FAQ · Resale & Exit
Exit decisions are often made emotionally or on outdated price assumptions. This page answers the questions owners ask when deciding whether, when and how to sell property in Gurgaon's resale market.
Price to closed comparables, not to hope, and time the sale around corridor supply cycles — not personal calendar convenience.
Avoid quarters when multiple projects in the same corridor are handing over simultaneously, as this temporarily depresses resale pricing; selling ahead of or well after such clusters typically realises a better price.
If held over 24 months, gains are taxed as long-term at 12.5% without indexation under the post-Finance Act 2024 rules; the buyer separately deducts 1% TDS on the sale value if it exceeds ₹50 lakh.
Residential resale in an active Gurgaon corridor typically takes 45–75 days from listing to registration when priced to comparables; commercial assets typically take 4–8 months given the smaller buyer pool.
An advisor who prices against actual comparable trades and pre-qualifies buyers typically achieves a faster sale at a defensible price than open-market listing without independent valuation.
Original title deed, previous sale/purchase agreement, encumbrance certificate, latest property tax receipts, occupation certificate (if applicable), and loan closure/NOC if the property was mortgaged.
Yes, through an assignment of the builder-buyer agreement, subject to the developer's consent and any transfer charges specified in the original agreement — this typically has a smaller buyer pool than ready resale.
Compare against actual recently registered transactions in the same project or micromarket, not against other sellers' asking prices on portals, which are frequently inflated and unadjusted for negotiation.
Reinvesting long-term capital gains into another residential property under Section 54, or into specified bonds under Section 54EC, within the prescribed timelines can substantially reduce the tax owed on the sale.
