Thanks for providing clarity Manish. Just wanted to know if you can comment on a Gift tax situation below:

A father intends to sell an old property(purchased in 1981) and distribute the sale proceeds equally as gift among 5 family members. For efficient tax planning, he intends to gift an equal share of the property to all 5 family members by including them as co-owners of property before selling it, and sell it soon after so that each gets 1/5th of sale proceeds directly. Here are my questions :

1) Will the sale proceeds be treated as LTCG in the hands of all 5 family members individually although the property will be sold soon after including them as co-owners (Original holding period is more than 3 years in the hands of father)?
2) If yes, can all 5 members individually use sec 54EC limit of 50 lakhs to invest in LTCG bonds like REC/NHAI or use section 54 individually to invest in different properties and claim LTCG exemption?
