yes..capital gains shall be attracted in both instances.
the sale of flat shall attract short term capital gains.
the cost of construction shall be equivalent to the cost incurred by the builder. With respect to the flats given to builder, though the transaction is chargeable to short term capital gains, there should not be any actual tax liability if the flat is transferred to the builder at price equivalent to cost of construction.
One more thing you need to look at is whether the rights on the land are also transferred or not. If rights in land are also being transferred, then to that extent long term capital gains shall also come into picture.

sir agrree with your reply but why short term capital gain attract we transferred a proportionate portion of land also which is a long term capital assets. so in second case when we tfd own share then 2 situation arise in case of cost of acquisition first land will be indexed and cost of construction will not be indexed and LTCG compute accordingly please ........reply if agree
