Suppose, we have the following ledger for a mutual fund (liquid fund)
MAR 1, 2013: Bought 100 units for 10Rs/unit. Total = 1000Rs
Mar 23,2013: Bonus of 10 units given by AMC at 10Rs/unit. Total value = 100Rs
Apr 30,2013: Sold 110 units at 8.2Rs/unit. Total = 900Rs
Should the bonus amount be included in the cost of acquisition?
If it is included, then
CG = 900 - (1000 + 100) = -200
If it is not included, then
CG = 900 - 1000 = -100
Thank you.
