PK,
Thank you for your prompt response. To clarify: a) I am a US citizen, b) 184K was sale price and I paid 1% commission on top of this. All other expenses were borne by the buyer. c) I paid TDS, but my CA in India has determined the actual LTCG tax due to be 39K. Indian taxes will be filed in May.
I can file for an extension, but my understanding is that tax is due anyway by April 15 and I need to ensure that I do not underpay. Hence I need to have a very accurate estimate of the tax due.
I will be filing FBAR as I have been doing all along. The proceeds from the sale (less TDS) were in my bank account in India for less than a week.
BTW, the LTCG tax rate in India changed recently (7/23/24) to 12.5% + cess and no more indexing.
I am looking forward to any assistance.
