Inheritance
Regulation & taxAssets received on the death of the previous owner.
In plain terms
Untaxed on transfer in India, but the original cost and holding period carry over to you.
Every term is defined twice: once the way a filing would put it, and once the way somebody would explain it to you across a table. The second one is usually the one that sticks.
