Gold received by assessee on redemption of gold bond certificates issued under Gold Deposit Scheme, 1999, is a new asset. Therefore, when assessee sold said gold within a period of twelve months from date of its acquisition, income arising from sale transaction was to be taxed as short‐term capital gain. (AY 2008‐09)
