You can replace the value as on 01/04/2001, if you wish, for computing the capital gain.You will be required to get this value certified by some Govt Approved Valuer, who charges some fees for the same. For the time being let us assume the value to be Rs.250,000 as on 01/04/2001 The indexed cost would be 250,000 X 2.72 (the index for 2017-18) = 680000 The capital gain = 11,50,000 - 680,000 =470,000 Within a period of 6 months, you can invest the gain i.e. 470,000 in specified bonds..... (REC...Rural Electrification Corporation OR NHAI....National Highway Authority of India)..... By doing so your capital gain would be exempt.... Feel free to contact for any further query.
