REITs and InvITs set to woo more investors with shortened LTCG period | Financial Express
Investors in Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) and Infrastructure Investment Trusts (InvITs) are poised to benefit from new tax regulations as proposed in the Union Budget, which align the long-term capital gains (LTCG) holding period of these assets with that of listed equity shares. This adjustment, which has been a long-standing demand of the industry, reduces the holding period for determining LTCG for listed business trusts from 36 months to 12 months, putting REITs and InvITs on par with listed equities.
