Please compute long term gains first using the computation below. Construction cost in 1982 has been assumed as 10,000 and please change it as per required. Purchase Year = 1981-82 Construction Year = 1982-83 Sale Year = 2011-12 Indexed Purchase/Construction Cost = 7082 x (785/100) + 10000 x (785/109) = 127612 As per above calculations, Long term gains is around 40.7 lacs. In order to save income tax fully on this, whole gain amount (~40.7 lacs) has to be invested in a single residential house property within next two years of sale. If she buys a residential flat for 22 lacs, 20% income tax will be payable on remaining 18.7 lacs. answered Sep 02 '11 at 17:30 by Pankaj Batra 5.2k●3●20 |
