Where Australia rules reach your Indian property

01

The property pool

Under the Family Law Act the pool includes property held anywhere in the world. Both sides must give full and frank disclosure on the financial statement.

02

Single expert reports

Where the two sides cannot agree a number, an independent expert valuation settles it. We write for a reader who has never seen an Indian title document.

03

Date of separation values

The relevant date is often separation or filing, not today. We value as at a past date using the notified rates and recorded sales from that period.

04

CGT on worldwide assets

Australian residents are taxed on worldwide gains. Your cost base in Australian dollars, and the exchange rate on each date, both matter.

One property, sometimes two valuations. Your filing in Australia often needs the value at one date, and your Indian filing needs it at another. We prepare both together so the two never contradict each other.
