Below is the long term gains and income tax computation: Purchase Year = 2006-07 Sale Year = 2011-12 Indexed Purchase price = 3000000 x (785/519) = 4537572 If you want to save this tax of around 92000, you will have to buy a residential house property for cost more than sale consideration (50 lacs) or construct a new house on land. This can be done within one year before selling plot or two years after that (three years in case of construction). You can get tax benefit for plot purchased in Dec 2010 too if you construct a house on it. answered Sep 07 '11 at 22:30 by Pankaj Batra 5.2k●3●20 |
