it doesnt matter whether it is in last FY or curr FY. if the nature of gain from sale house property is short term then you dont have any way to save tax as far as i remember. tax on such gain is payable in accordance with the slab income and no fixed percentage is charged.

If property is sold within 3 years from purchase, then it will attract STCG. I think it will be separately taxed at 15% + cess.
